Author, You Shouldn't Have Come Here
When I received an advanced reader copy of The Intern, I knew I was in for a treat because Michele Campbell does not disappoint. What I didn’t know was that I was holding her best work yet. Sharply written and masterfully plotted, Campbell weaves a brilliantly layered story featuring strong female characters who are forced to decide between doing the right thing or doing right by their families.
Meet Harvard law student Madison Rivera, who has just been offered the chance to intern for Judge Kathryn Conroy, a woman she greatly idolizes. It’s a dream come true, there’s just one hitch: Madison’s brother has been arrested, and his case has been assigned to Conroy. Fearing she’ll lose the internship if she discloses her brother is on the judge’s docket, Madison opts to keep it a secret—but she’s not the only one keeping secrets, and some are much more dangerous than others. When her brother goes missing after accusing the judge of corruption, Madison starts digging into Conroy’s life and quickly realizes not everything is as it seems with her idol. The two women have something to gain both from working together and working against one another—but which will they choose, and can they trust that they’ll both be on the same page?
Part legal thriller, part cat-and-mouse page turner, The Intern is fully addictive and should be your next read. I rest my case.
