Bad Day for Justice by Charlotte and Don Stuart is an intense, multilayered legal thriller involving two families and spanning a period of almost 40 years. Navy pilot Danny Ortez hijacks a Navy jet and disappears into the Canadian wilderness. He leaves behind his wife, Julia, and young daughter, resulting in the Navy terminating any spouse benefits. She hires top-notch lawyer Duncan Carmichael to help her buy some time to relocate. In the meantime, her father, Harold Dawson, is murdered, and the accused is a work colleague. He employs the similarly brilliant Sydney Warren, Carmichael's law partner. Things, however, are not as clear-cut as they appear. Many years pass, and the two cases reemerge when the adult children of both families engage the same legal counsel to clear their families’ names. Years of buried secrets resurface, revealing a sophisticated conspiracy.
