Description

A gripping legal thriller and powerful urban drama from Frederic Block, a federal judge with a unique perspective on New York's streets. Race to Judgment is a "reality-fiction" debut novel that draws on the author's own experiences as a trial court judge in Brooklyn. The story follows Ken Williams, an African-American civil rights protagonist who rises from his days as an Assistant United States Attorney to challenge corruption and injustice in the Brooklyn DA's office. With the help of a colorful private eye, Williams takes on several high-profile cases, including one that mirrors a real-life trial handled by the author. As Williams navigates the complexities of the law and the streets of New York, he must also confront his own passions and creative outlets - including jazz piano and country songs written by the author.
