Summary
Juan Martinez, the fiery prosecutor who convicted notorious murderer Jodi Arias for the disturbing killing of Travis Alexander, speaks for the first time about the shocking investigation and sensational trial that captivated the nation.
Through two trials, America watched with bated breath as Juan Martinez fought relentlessly to convict Jodi Arias of Murder One for viciously stabbing her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander to death. What emerged was a story wrought with sex, manipulation, and deceit that stunned the public at every turn. Arias, always playing the wronged and innocent woman, changed her story continually as her bizarre behavior surrounding the crime and its aftermath came to light. Unwavering, Arias and her defense team continued to play off the salacious details of the case, until she was finally found guilty and - controversially - sentenced to life behind bars.
Now, speaking openly for the first time, prosecutor Juan Martinez will unearth new details from the investigation that were never revealed at trial, exploring key facts from the case and the pieces of evidence he chose to keep close to the vest. Throughout the trials, his bullish and unfaltering prosecution strategy was both commended and criticized, and in his book, Martinez will illuminate the unique tactics he utilized in this case and how they lead to a successful conviction, and - for the first time - discuss how he felt losing the death penalty sentence he’d pursued for years.
Going beyond the news reports, Martinez will explore the truth behind the multiple facades of Jodi Arias. Sparring with her from across the stand, Martinez came to know Arias like no one else could, dissecting what it took for a seemingly normal girl to become a deluded, cunning, and unrepentant murderer.
With new stories from behind the scenes of the trial and Martinez’s own take on his defendant, the book takes you inside the mind of Jodi Arias like never before and is the definitive account of the case that shocked America.

Brilliant
Having recently watched the whole trial on you tube, seen how devious and manipulative Jodie Arias is and watched Juan's amazing performance, I chose to buy his book. I wasn't disappointed. I loved the background to what he was thinking and doing and bits of the trial that we didn't get to see. It was apparent to me from the beginning that his way in what some have deemed as aggressive was far from it and instead was his prosecuting style. He was an equal opportunitist when it came to his approach. It made sure that the nonsense was filtered and truth was revealed, despite who was in the witness box. I see Juan Martinez is back in the headlines relating to complaints and Jodie Arias is still putting the Alexander family through torture. I also see she has accused her own defence attorney of fabricating evidence when in fact it was her. Watch this space....I hope Juan is fully exonerated because he is one of the best prosecutors I've watched and this book shows you exactly why!

Finally got this book and it's great. The narrator sounds very similar to Mr Martinez and I love when he narrates the female parts (immature I know). Basically, it's a really great addition to the YouTube and endless videos and interviews available on the Internet. This book wraps it all up nicely. Recommended.

Very interesting
There's such a lot of detailed information on this book, one can't afford to let one's mind wander. However, it is really very well told and really interesting.

RIP Travis. Sometimes the pretty ones just aren’t worth it.
Most enjoyable narration to a book written from the heart. Mr Martinez SIR it is because of people like you that people like Travis and his family have justice. Thank You. As for you Jodi may your nights haunt you forever.

Insight to a mind of a genius. His thought process, strategy and always being one step ahead of the defence is just mind blowing.
