Purchase options and add-ons

Attorney David Adams is the last hope for an adolescent runaway being targeted by an assassin and sought by the FBI in a breath-catching novel by the Amazon Charts bestselling author of An Unequal Defense.

Having abandoned corporate law, David Adams is now the voice of justice for the city of Austin’s vulnerable outcasts. His new client is Parker Barnes, a trembling twelve-year-old runaway and foster-care poster boy arrested for petty theft. Dealt a rough hand in life, he reminds David of his own childhood. This should be a simple, if heartbreakingly familiar, case. Until the FBI muscles in.

Parker is also a suspect in the murder of a federal witness. No matter how desperate Parker’s denial, David fears there’s so much more to the kid’s hard-luck story than he’s letting on. Especially when a hit man sends the boy running to the only safe place he knows: the streets.

With both the feds and a killer on Parker’s trail, the hunt is on. Teaming up with a pro bono investigator and utilizing his reliable band of street-savvy friends, David must find Parker first if he’s to save the boy from an undeserved fate. And maybe even save himself.

Great author!

I've just finished the last Chad Zunker book and I'm so upset I don't have anything else of his to read! Every book gets you hooked from the first page. His characters are well developed, the plot line keeps you engaged and makes you not want to put the book down. I can't wait for more Zunker books.

Simple, engaging and uplifting

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2021

Verified Purchase

What makes this series unique for me is that it describes a homeless community in a very entertaining format of a thriller. The fact that author had some personal experience with homeless people makes me believe that the pictures of homeless communities he presents are mostly true (although they seem almost too sugar coated at times). It is a third (and may be the best) book in the series but it may be read alone.

The plot is simple, easy to follow and very satisfactory. The good usually wins. Almost all characters are either good or bad which is also a nice change from some dark psychological thrillers. The main new character is 12 years old Parker, a homeless boy who witnessed a murder and became himself a target of a murderer. It is a little cliche idea but it works very well in this book, especially because Parker is extremely likable and surprisingly resourceful.

In short: very uplifting book

I really enjoyed this new adventure with David Adams. It was a high octane ride. Even though I hoped all would work out in the end, I kept reading without stopping.
Chad Zunker's writing is spot on and addictive.

Runaway Justice by Chad Zunker is a thrilling legal thriller that keeps you hooked till the end. The protagonist, David Adams, is a former corporate lawyer who now helps the homeless and fights for justice. He gets involved in a dangerous case that exposes a conspiracy and puts his life at risk. The book is well-written, fast-paced and full of twists and turns. I enjoyed the characters, the plot and the suspense. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good mystery with a social message.

Legal thriller with a big heart

Reviewed in Canada on July 24, 2023

Verified Purchase

Runaway Justice is the third novel in Chad Zunker’s series of David Adams legal thrillers. Attorney David Adams is a classic underdog lawyer, a compassionate man who works on behalf of the underclass on the streets of Austin, Texas. He’s ably assisted by a private investigator named Jess, who also offers her services pro bono, as well as a network of street people who have come to know and trust them. In Runaway Justice, Adams’s client is a twelve-year-old runaway who has fled a string of abusive foster homes and then witnessed a brutal underworld murder. Now he’s on the run, with killers and the FBI in hot pursuit. Zunker’s characters are well developed, the plot is crafted carefully, and the story rockets along to a satisfying conclusion. This is the first book I have read in this series; I’ll definitely be circling back to read the first two.
