Blurb:

Forced into the shadows while waging war on an oppressive regime intent on controlling those born with unnatural powers, the Resistance feels like a family. And although all families harbour secrets, theirs are world-shattering.

When Ava Moore foresees the death of her sister Brooklyn and Resistance leader Parker Quinn is forced to appear in a televised trial accused of murder, the web of lies begins to unravel. For not only is Resistance’s second-in-command, Jay Frazer, fighting a guerrilla battle with deadly consequences, he’s also trying to bury his deep-seated love for Parker.

With Parker and Jay temporarily out of the picture, double-agent Trent Reese is left responsible for leading the Resistance. Trent is willing to adapt his moral code to any situation, but what—or whom—does he believe in? As for innocent Ava, who’s plagued by unsettling visions, it’s becoming clear that everyone she loves is in peril. Given, however, that Parker is concealing a mighty gift of his own, one that could change the entire course of the rebellion, the future of the all-seeing state is on the line too.

When the web of secrets is untangled, who will survive?

Praise for the novel:

“With Carver Wood, one of the Resistance’s very own, having been incarcerated and put on death row, and the Central Force desperately hunting down members of the Resistance, the leader of the Resistance, Parker Quinn, knew things were getting out of hand. Parker’s second in command, Jay, leads a mission to rescue Carver against Parker’s will, a mission that turns into a blood bath. Following the incident, Parker murders his girlfriend Brooklyn and surrenders himself to the authorities. Why does Parker murder his girlfriend? What is his fate after surrendering? With Jay currently nursing an injury from the failed mission, and Ava, Brooklyn’s sister and one of the Resistance’s most trusted, under the Central Force’s radar, is it the end of the Resistance?

“Konstantina P. concocts a gripping plot in The Trial Show, her first installment in The Resistance Rises series. If you are looking for a mystery thriller laced with an unraveling tale of secrets, regrets, love, betrayal, pain, and so much more, you will absolutely love this book. Konstantina P. firmly embeds her sense of wit and sarcasm in her intense sentences. Her choice of words gives the story a professional touch. I loved how she used the first-person perspective, switching between the characters, in her exciting cast. This allowed me a wider scope of insight into the enthralling storyline. The author depicts scenes with remarkable emotional depth as well as making them impressively vivid. Konstantina P. wonderfully develops her characters, harnessing the power of introspection. Parker makes a lot of tough choices to protect his followers, but do they see things his way? I loved the book and I can’t wait to get my hands on the second installment.” – 5-star review by Readers’ Favorite
