"A smart, tense, and emotionally layered mystery with staying power."
- The San Francisco Book Review

Oakland defense attorney Joe Turner ventures to a small town in the Deep South to defend an autistic teenager accused of murdering the local high school football hero. The tense trial is seen through the eyes of the jury, a diverse group that struggles with their own preconceptions about autism and fractures under the weight of their decision. But is there a plant on the jury? And whose side are they on?

Desperate to shield his endearing client from a life sentence, Joe is assisted by his daring girlfriend and his colorful investigator. Together, the three urbanites navigate a world of Southern charm and hillbilly legend where secrets whisper through the hollers, just out of reach.

Written by a trial attorney, Holler Whispers captures the raw emotion of the courtroom and depicts a criminal justice system fraught with human frailty. Endorsed by the Autism Society, the story explores how society treats its most vulnerable and reveals how the truth can come from the most unexpected voices.
