About the Books
“THE WITNESS SERIES IS A MUST READ FOR ANYONE WHO LOVES GOOD THRILLERS.” – AMAZON REVIEW
The Witness series is unique in the world of series. It was born with Hostile Witness, a traditional legal procedural that followed attorney Josie Bates through her defense of sixteen-year-old Hannah Sheraton for murder. Along the way, magic happened. Rebecca Forster created a fictional blended family that caught the imagination of the reading public as they connected with Forster’s unique blend of character and theme.
Each of the seven books in the series follows a super charged emotional and psychological path of the characters as they come to grips with questions of ethics, morality, self-worth, honor and trust.
Hostile Witness: Should children be tried as adults for violent crimes? How young is too young?
Silent Witness: Have fathers’ rights been abused by both the courts and women to the detriment of the children involved. How are children manipulated in divorce?
Privileged Witness: Is privilege like the race card, able to be played at a moment’s notice, stacking the social and legal deck? Is it always about money?
Expert Witness: Is the courtroom really a giant playground where the winner is the one who can throw the ball the hardest? Is destroying a reputation like murder?
Eyewitness: How civilized are we really? When an ancient code collides with modern law the question of justice isn’t as simple as it seems.
Forgotten Witness: Time marches on but in its wake it leaves memories of missteps and transgressions. If only one person suffers, does it matter that wrongs are righted?
