The Juror's Lie

She lied to get on the jury. Now the truth wants out.

Years after her sister's murder, clinical psychologist Claire Morgan returns to Santa Fe with a single purpose: make the man she's sure did it pay. Under a false name, she slips through voir dire and onto the jury at Jonah Keller's trial. From the box, the plan seems simple-until the courtroom starts pushing back. Testimony refuses to match her memories. Evidence cuts in unexpected directions. Fellow jurors splinter into factions. And Jonah-calm, unreadable-feels less like a target than a mirror.

As pressure builds inside the deliberation room, Claire's certainty erodes. What began as an act of vengeance becomes a razor's edge between justice and obsession. To reach a verdict, she must decide which version of the story she believes-and what she's willing to bury to protect it.

• Psychological suspense meets legal thriller-a locked-jury drama where motives, memories, and power collide.
• A tense, character-driven mystery with sharp dialogue, shifting alliances, and a verdict you won't see coming.
• Atmospheric courtroom & jury-room scenes for fans of claustrophobic, high-stakes storytelling.

Read if you love: moral dilemmas, unreliable memory, jury-room warfare, and the line between truth and the story we need to believe.

The Juror's Lie is a psychological legal thriller.
