Murder, A Random Act
Duncan Gabrelli lived a peaceful life—until one day when everything changed. When Duncan was sixteen years old, strangers burst into his home and brutally murdered his mother, while he hid underneath the house and heard every devastating sound.
But after dialing a mysterious number, young Duncan was whisked away to a whole new life, sent to the finest schools, and provided every luxury by an unknown benefactor.
Decades later, with a combination of intellect and (seemingly) good luck, he has climbed the ladder as an attorney at one of the most prestigious law firms around.
But there’s one small he is becoming increasingly consumed by the murder cases he works with on a regular basis, and is developing an unhealthy obsession with committing the perfect murder.
Now he is forced to confront his inner demons, if he wants to protect his reputation as an attorney—and, ultimately, his life. But in this life-altering conflict between right and wrong, is there any way for the brilliant but troubled attorney to emerge unscathed?

This has been one of the best books I've ever read. I was in suspense not knowing what would happen from beginning to end. Love the twists and turns which kept me not knowing what would happen. Was most intrigued by the decisions Duncan had to face and the decisions he had to make based on how he felt and being torn between what he wanted and what was right and wrong. It was thrilling and exciting!!! I will continue recommending it to my friends and would not mind reading it again.
As I read the book, I was able to put a face to the main character as the writer himself is an attorney. Thank you Rocky Dorcy for giving us a fun adventurous thrilling and exciting story.

It is hard to believe that this is the author's first publication. It kept me on the edge of my seat. It looks like there could be at least one more book in this story line. I hope so, because I can't wait to read it.

Really liked this one! I enjoyed watching Duncan's growth as a character so much that I was up until 3:30 last night finishing the book. I kept going "Just one more chapter. Just one more chapter." Some intense moments, but I like that sort of thing.

A good psychological thriller.
