Previous Praise for Robert Bailey
βThe Professor is that rare combination of thrills, chills, and heart. Gripping from the first page to the last.β βWinston Groom, author of Forrest Gump
βRobert Bailey is a thriller writer to reckon with. His debut novel has a tight and twisty plot, vivid characters, and a pleasantly down-home sensibility that will remind some readers of adventures in Grisham-land. Luckily, Robert Bailey is an original, and his skill as a writer makes the Alabama setting all his own. The Professor marks the beginning of a very promising career.β βMark Childress, author of Georgia Bottoms and Crazy in Alabama
βTaut, page turning, and smart, The Professor is a legal thriller that will keep readers up late as the twists and turns keep coming. Set in Alabama, it also includes that stateβs greatest icon, one Coach Bear Bryant. In fact, the Bear gets things going with the energy of an Alabama kickoff to Auburn. Robert Bailey knows his state, and he knows his law. He also knows how to write characters that are real, sympathetic, and surprising. If he keeps writing novels this good, heβs got quite a literary career before him.β βHomer Hickam, author of Rocket Boys/October Sky, a New York Times #1 bestseller
βBaileyβs solid second McMurtrie and Drake legal thriller (after 2014βs The Professor) . . . provides enough twists and surprises to keep readers turning the pages.β βPublishers Weekly
