Worse still, the investigation uncovers a decision Maya made years earlier-one she believed was necessary to save a child's life. If revealed, it could end her legal career, expose her to criminal charges, and force her to question whether she has become the very thing she has spent her life fighting.With time running out, Maya must prove the innocence of a man she despises while hunting the real killer before another murder silences the remaining witnesses. Every answer raises another question. Every courtroom victory carries a personal cost. Every step toward justice demands another sacrifice.As old allies face impossible loyalties and hidden enemies emerge from unexpected places, Maya discovers that truth is rarely clean, innocence is never simple, and the law can only survive when someone is willing to defend it-even for those who seem least deserving.Last Rites concludes the Guardian of New Orleans series with layered investigations, courtroom confrontations, psychological tension, moral conflict, buried conspiracies, and characters forced to choose between justice and vengeance.Some verdicts close a case.Others change every life they touch.

She survived the bullet. Now she must defend the man she hates before an innocent life is taken by the law.
Maya Delacroix expected the gunshot to end her career. Instead, it leaves her with a choice that could destroy everything she has spent years fighting to protect. As she struggles to walk again, a single discovery overturns the case that shocked the nation. Senator Hollis, a ruthless political figure responsible for countless crimes, may have been convicted of one murder he did not commit.
The evidence is flawed. Witnesses were manipulated. A confession points to another killer. With an execution date approaching, Hollis asks the last person who should ever stand beside him in court to become his defense attorney.
Maya refuses—until the facts force her to confront a truth she cannot ignore.
The law demands justice, not revenge.
As she reopens the investigation into her husband's murder, long-buried secrets surface from the shadows of New Orleans. Every witness seems to be hiding something. Every document uncovers another deception. The conspiracy reaches beyond organized crime into courtrooms, political offices, and the very institutions sworn to protect the innocent.
But the deeper Maya digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes.
Saving Hollis could cost her reputation, her closest relationships, and the public's trust. Worse still, the investigation uncovers a decision Maya made years earlier—one she believed was necessary to save a child's life. If revealed, it could end her legal career, expose her to criminal charges, and force her to question whether she has become the very thing she has spent her life fighting.
With time running out, Maya must prove the innocence of a man she despises while hunting the real killer before another murder silences the remaining witnesses. Every answer raises another question. Every courtroom victory carries a personal cost. Every step toward justice demands another sacrifice.
As old allies face impossible loyalties and hidden enemies emerge from unexpected places, Maya discovers that truth is rarely clean, innocence is never simple, and the law can only survive when someone is willing to defend it—even for those who seem least deserving.
Last Rites concludes the Guardian of New Orleans series with layered investigations, courtroom confrontations, psychological tension, moral conflict, buried conspiracies, and characters forced to choose between justice and vengeance.
Some verdicts close a case.
Others change every life they touch.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
