Let Vengeance Be Mine by David B. Twilley is a novel that examines whether the legal system is truly fair. The book focuses on Tom, a NYPD Captain, and Daniel, a successful defense attorney. Tom and Daniel have been lifelong friends – until criminal masterminds pit the two against each other in court.

A powerful thing about Let Vengeance Be Mine is that the author has created complicated, emotionally-faceted characters. Twilley gives the characters a realness, and he makes their interactions feel authentic. Furthermore, this is a book that implores the reader to think about the legal system, justice, and personal morals and ethics. At its core, it is a story of humanity: of people, and their decisions, and why they choose the paths they take.
