The Mentor — R.A. Forster

Stunning and savvy federal prosecutor Lauren Kingsley has just been handed the opportunity of a lifetime - prosecuting a militia terrorist responsible for the devastating bombing of an IRS building. To Lauren, this case is more than just a shot at making it as a hot young prosecutor - it's also her chance to prove to her longtime friend and mentor, Judge Wilson Caufeld, that she's got what it takes to succeed in the high-stakes world of the criminal justice system.

But when Caufeld is found shot to death, Lauren is suddenly in over her head - trapped in a maze of conspiracy, corruption, and secrets leading right up to the U.S. Supreme Court. Was Caufeld the target of a radical group's violent rage, or did someone from his past have a personal vendetta against him? Caught in the middle of a fierce tug-of-war between an FBI agent with his own agenda and a colleague whose loyalty is highly questionable, Lauren must decide who she can trust before she becomes the next mark of a vicious killer.
