Miranda Quinn is back in the courtroom working as a legal aid attorney when she's asked to represent Lennon, the daughter of a high school friend currently serving time in prison. Still struggling with guilt from the role she played in her friend's downfall, Miranda agrees to help.

The former assistant DA has given up a lucrative career as a legal talk radio host to better serve her community. In her spare time, she volunteers as a counselor for at-risk teens. It's challenging but rewarding, at least until the young women begin to mysteriously disappear. As Miranda struggles to find out who is responsible, it becomes clear that Lennon is in danger as well. As the police piece together Miranda's clues, they realize they're dealing with a much larger and farther-reaching organization than they had expected.

Miranda has faced her share of adversaries, both in and out of the courtroom. To expose the sex traffickers preying on the group of girls she has sworn to protect, she'll need to keep her eyes and ears open. But to save the one young woman who needs her most, she'll have to open her heart.

She's in for the fight of her life.

My thoughts on Miranda Fights

Miranda Fights by Gail Ward Olmsted is a poignant story about resilience, community, and fighting for what’s right. The narrative focuses on Miranda, a compelling and relatable protagonist who is thrust into a fight for justice she never anticipated.

From the opening pages, Olmsted’s storytelling captures you with its warmth and depth. Miranda is more than a character; she feels like a friend, someone you root for even when the odds are stacked against her. Her journey is both deeply personal and universally resonant, highlighting the strength it takes to stand up for what’s right, even when everything feels stacked against you.

Olmsted has a knack for bringing her settings to life, making you feel the grit, determination, and camaraderie of Miranda’s world as well as the dark, dangerous life the homeless girls occupy. The Legal Aid world is not for the faint of heart. I wouldn’t classify this as a courtroom thriller but it’s certainly a first-class legal thriller.

This gripping tale manages to balance its serious, darker themes of human trafficking and the unhoused population with moments of levity, wit, and human connection. The relationships Miranda forms along the way are as inspiring as her own courage, reminding readers of the importance of solidarity and friendship in times of adversity.

While this is book three of the Miranda series, each book is a complete stand-alone story. It’s not necessary to read the books in order, but doing so will give you an even richer experience.

I recommend Miranda Fights to all fans of gripping, suspenseful, well-written stories.

I was offered an ARC of the book but chose to read it with my Kindle Unlimited subscription. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.

About Gail Ward Olmsted

About Gail Ward Olmsted:

A family trip to Sedona, AZ prompted me to start writing JEEP TOUR, my first novel. I fell in love with the red rocks and blue skies. My second novel is Guessing at Normal, a rock and roll love story. Driving on the Left, a romantic sequel of sorts to JEEP TOUR is based in Ireland. Second Guessing, a contemporary romance, follows Jill's story from Guessing at Normal.

Landscape of a Marriage is a historical fiction on the lives of park builder Frederick Law Olmsted and his late brother's widow, Mary.

I enjoy writing about quirky, lovable women in search of their happy ever after. Second chances, do-overs, fresh starts: whatever you want to call them, our ability to reinvent ourselves is a beautiful thing.

My latest is Miranda Writes, a contemporary novel with a legal twist. You'll fall in love with Miranda Quinn, a disgraced attorney seeking, you guessed it, a career comeback. And her love life could use a jump start too!

A hopeless romantic, I am married to the love of my life. My favorite role is that of mom to two young adults. I enjoy reading, boating, knitting, music, and traveling.
