I am apart of James Patterson’s Street Team, since he’s the author who got me back into reading as an adult I cherish that they accepted me on the Street Team two years ago.
I was sent the new James Patterson Viola Davis collab titled Judge Stone, which comes out March 9, 2026.
The most respected citizen in Union Springs, Alabama (population 3,314), is Judge Mary Stone. She holds two responsibilities sacred: running her family farm and presiding over her courtroom. It’s there she draws the most controversial case in the history of the South.
Criminally, it’s open-and-shut.
Ethically, there is no middle ground. Essentially, it’s a choice between life and death.
No judge can satisfy everyone. It would be dangerous to try. But Judge Stone is willing to fight to bring justice to the people and place she loves.
