This Gripping Legal Thriller Is a Perfect Summer Read

When Jared Neaton grew tired of the shady ethics of his big law firm and left to go out on his own, he never expected the wheels to fly off so quickly. One big case collapsing on him has pushed him to the brink and it's all he can do to scrape by. He can't risk another bad loss.

Erin Larson is running out of options. In the wake of her father's death, she found a slim piece of paper--a deposit slip--with an unbelievable amount on it. Ten million dollars. Only the bank claims it has no record of the deposit and stonewalls her attempts to find out more. This lawsuit, her last chance, has brought only intimidation and threats. Now she needs to convince Jared to take a risk, to help her because the money is real. And both need to watch their backs as digging deeper unleashes something far more dangerous than just threats.

Descrizione prodotto

Dalla quarta di copertina

$10,000,000 Is Missing.

Erin Larson is running out of options. In the wake of her father's death, she found a slim piece of paper--a deposit slip--with an unbelievable amount on it. Only the bank claims they have no record of the money, and trying to hire a lawyer has brought only intimidation and threats. Erin's last chance is Jared Neaton.

How Far Will One Lawyer Go to Find the Money?

When Jared wearied of the shady ethics of his big law firm and started his own, he never expected the wheels to fly off so quickly. One big loss has pushed him to the brink, and it's all he can do to scrape by.

And How Far Will Someone Go to Stop Him?

He's not sure if Erin's case is worth the risk, but if the money is real, all his problems could vanish. When digging deeper unleashes something far more dangerous than just threats, both Jared and Erin must decide the cost they're willing to pay to discover the truth.

If Todd Johnson's debut novel in the legal thriller "The Deposit Slip" is any indication of his writing talent, then you'll be hearing much more from him and he's found a new fan in this reader. A $10,000,000 check has been found by a modest farmer's daughter perusing her late father's safe deposit contents. Where in the world would a working class farmer obtain such a sum and from whom? She hire's struggling attorney Jared Neaton to help her. Together they're met with scorn, sympathy from their home town of Ashley, MN. Did he embezzle it? Will the bank go under? So many questions. Jared's former law firm Paisley enters as the opposing counsel. Jared, reluctant to return to Ashley where he not only faces a daunting case he is reluctant to take on but faces the demons of his own father, who embezzled money years before and now has to deal with him. Not to mention facing the dubious ethics of Paisley who think this is an easy win and a chance to get back at Jared for jumping ship. So many twists and turns throughout the book make this a real page turner from beginning to end. Todd Johnson, an attorney turned author uses his expertise to detail the legal and banking processes that makes this not only interesting but nerve wracking as the dynamics of preparing for a case and the seeming endless paperwork, ethical dilemmas, judicial roadblocks, egos and of course money add to one great thriller. I can't wait to read Todd Johnson's next book.

Wow! New favorite authors come few and far between, but Todd Johnson is a new favourite for me. The Deposit Slip is unique and consuming. Loved the plot. From the very beginning it was a lose-lose situation. A young woman finds a deposit slip in her deceased father's safety deposit box, but there is no accounting for the money that was supposed to have been deposited. So she hires a lawyer to find out where her money is. It seems there is just no way for the protagonists to ever succeed against a powerful law firm and a depressing lack of evidence, but Johnson brings about the victory for his heros in a way that keeps you glued to the pages. I'm a huge fan of legal thrillers so this was a wonderful surprise addition to my library for me. So glad I bought the book and can hardly wait for him to write some more.

Deposit Slip, The  Not my usual read but I am really grateful I got it. I feel it would make a good Film or Mini TV Series. The characters were all believable and the suspense moved along at just the right pace. Very "American", I suppose, with the minnow fighting the sharks and putting up a good fight. A lot of research had gone into this book and the result was well worth it.

Many of the books that I read are by new authors. I am happy to find one that I can recommend to others. This book is filled with just the right amount of suspense and mystery throughout. It does not contain profanity, lots of very descriptive romance mixed with sex; therefore, I think it is suitable for YA and up. While I have read many books where the f and s words were profusely used, I get more satisfaction out of reading a novel in which the main characters have some level of integrity and morality. The latter is what I found in this story. The book is well written, well-edited and the plot well focused. Some of the character's morals are substandard which makes them below the level of likeability. The hero is one that I started rooting for early on in the story.

Jared Neaton is a young struggling lawyer with not a lot going for him. He quit a prestigious law firm two years prior and branched out on his own. He recently lost a humdinger of a case, and he has lots of unpaid bills. When his mentor asked him to take on a rather unusual case involving a deposit slip belonging to a deceased man, he started checking out the case. Things do not go well for him as there are those from his previous place of employment and some other greedy individuals that are determined to see that his efforts are greatly stifled at every turn. His decision to take the case brings him back to his home town......and to his estranged father. Not only does he struggle to win the case against the home town bank and an old faded deposit slip, but he has anger, guilt and unsettled feelings toward his father that he has avoided for a number of years.

The story was interesting from the beginning; however, I would not call it extremely suspenseful or page-turning. There are quite a few characters to keep track of, but some are so insignificant that it doesn't really matter. The story gains intensity about midway, and held my undivided attention until the ending. There are lots of twists and turns, and I could not figure out what would happen next. That, alone, was enough to keep me reading even when my eyes told me they had enough for one sitting! I look forward to reading other books by this author.

After Erin's father dies she comes across a deposit slip for $10,000,000 but the bank has denied all knowledge so she needs a lawyer to fight for her.

Meanwhile fed up of corporate life Jared sets up his own legal practice with a shoe-string budget. Life is tough and he's just getting by so Erin's case could make all the difference.

To take up the case means returning to his home town, a place he left as soon as possible ashamed of his father's behaviour. The town however is against him as the bank could make things very difficult for everyone so finding people to help the case isn't going to be easy. I really loved the librarian Mrs Huddleston who manages to pour oil on troubled waters on more than one occasion.

The end did seem rather rushed and contrived but that is my only real problem with this book.

With powerful characterisation and courtroom scenes this is a winner especially considering it's a first book. If you're a fan of John Grisham then you will enjoy this book
