The Deposit Slip
Release date: July 1, 2012
Erin Larson has run out of options. While clearing out her father’s safe deposit box in the wake of his death, she found a slim piece of paper. It was a deposit slip from the local bank in the unimaginable amount of ten million dollars. However, the bank has denied any record of the deposit, forcing her into a bitter lawsuit--a legal battle that has led to intimidation and threats and driven her first lawyer to withdraw.
When Jared Neaton receives the call about Erin's case, he has problems of his own. Having recently left the shady ethics of big firm practice to make his fortune, he has been exhausted, financially and personally, by a heartbreaking trial loss. With bills piling up, Jared immediately recognizes the case for what it is: a “breakthrough” case. The kind that could put his career back on solid ground--or
end it.
Jared must decide whether to take Erin’s case, betting his faltering career on nothing more than a thin sheet of paper. It would mean a journey back to his own hometown of Ashley, Minnesota, a place he had resolved to leave forever. Jared soon learns that it will also mean a struggle extending far beyond the courtroom--with much more at risk than money.
