Book Description
Anonymous Verdict
by James W Pickett
Justice was supposed to be decided in a courtroom.
Now it’s decided by a vote.
When veteran detective Silas Whitmore arrives at the penthouse of a recently acquitted executive who has vanished without a trace, the scene feels wrong from the moment he steps inside. No signs of forced entry. No witnesses. No body. Just a faint chemical scent in the air—and a hidden titanium phone containing access to a secret underground platform known only as The Verdict.
Inside the app, thousands of anonymous users vote on the guilt or innocence of people the legal system failed to convict.
When the timer reaches zero, the sentence is carried out.
As Silas uncovers the truth behind the network, he finds himself racing against the clock to save the next target before another digital verdict becomes a real-world disappearance. But the deeper he goes, the clearer it becomes: this isn’t just an app.
It’s a parallel justice system—efficient, invisible, and already watching him.
Dark, atmospheric, and chillingly plausible, Anonymous Verdict is a gripping techno-thriller about surveillance, public outrage, and what happens when society decides the law is no longer enough.
