      Book Overview

      How far will a man go to protect his family? For lawyer Sam Trask, it is farther than he ever thought possible, even in his worst nightmare. Because his worst nightmare is about to come true. At age forty-seven, attorney Sam Trask finally seems to have his life in order. The dark years of too much drinking and self-seeking ambition are behind him. His marriage is solid again. Everything seems finally on the right track.Until a voice from the past comes back to say hello.Suddenly, Sam faces a danger more real than he ever imagined-danger from someone who will not rest until Sam's life comes crashing down around him. Desperate, Sam seeks protection from the law to which he has dedicated his life.But when the threats are turned on his family, and the law seems powerless to protect them, Sam must consider a choice that strikes at the heart of his life and faith-whether to take the law into his own hands.(This book was originally titled No Legal Grounds when it was published in 2007. It has been lightly edited, but remains true to its time and place.)"You've got mail" equals "You've got trouble" in this impossible-to-put-down thriller. Bell's straight-from-the-headlines tale will raise the hair on your neck for one important reason: it could happen to any of us. Empowered by his firsthand knowledge of the legal system, the Christy Award-winning former trial lawyer paints a picture of just how vulnerable our secrets-and families-are, in the age of Internet stalkers.

      "No Legal Grounds"... perhaps James Scott Bell's best ever!

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      "No Legal Grounds" is a suspenseful thriller which rivals or surpasses other authors of this genre. With a plot comprised of a series of events which can only be described as nightmarish, a family is faced with the threats and terrorism of a totally-demented sociopath who will stop at nothing as he maliciously stalks his prey. And, all the while, with `no legal grounds' for law enforcement to act in their defense. With his...

      Another winner of a legal thriller from James Scott Bell

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      Lawyer Sam Trask's life is finally in order. His old drinking and success-at-any-cost ways have been replaced with embracing his family and his faith. Then Nicky Oberlin, an old college classmate, shows up. His first contact with Sam is an innocent enough e-mail. No big deal. Sam deletes the message. After all, he barely remembers the guy, and distractions in his already hectic schedule are not on the agenda. But there's something...

      A Gripping Look At A Terrifying Prospect

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      Sam Trask has enough problems with his law practice and his family. Then a figure from his past, a man he doesn't even recall, begins a systematic war against Sam and his family--a war that progresses from psychological to physical. Every time I thought that the tension couldn't be ratcheted up, Bell managed to make my pulse rate go even higher. This book is a classic example that the genre of Christian suspense fiction isn't...

      James Scott Bell at his all time best

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      It is no secret I am a fan of James Scott Bell. As a former trial lawyer, he has written some of the best legal-suspense stories I have ever read. He tackles controversial subjects, and is not afraid to pull and peel at them until nothing but truth is left exposed. More than that, he knows how to begin a book in the thick of it. You know what `it' is. Action. Tension. He doesn't fill page after page with fluff. He...
