Trailblazing political leader, voting rights advocate, attorney, entrepreneur, and bestselling author Stacey Abrams offers a follow-up to her #1 New York Times bestselling suspense novel, While Justice Sleeps, with Rogue Justice—an intricately plotted thriller in which a blackmailed federal judge, a secret court, and a brazen murder may lead to an unprecedented national crisis.

As Congressional hearings and political skirmishes swirl around her, Supreme Court clerk Avery Keene is approached at a legal conference by Preston Davies, a fellow law clerk to a federal judge. Davies believes his boss was being blackmailed in the days before she died. Desperate to understand what happened, he gives Avery a file, a burner phone, and a warning that there are dangerous people involved.

Another shocking murder leads Avery to a list of federal judges, all on the U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. As Avery digs deeper, she worries that something far more sinister may be unfolding inside the nation’s third branch of government.

With Rogue Justice, Abrams combines twisting plotlines, wry wit, and clever puzzles to create another immensely entertaining suspense novel.

Abrams will be in conversation with Tiffany Cross, a journalist who has reported for MSNBC, BET, and CNN. She is the author of Say It Louder!: Black Voters, White Narratives, and Saving Our Democracy.
