About this ebook

Winner of the 2018 Holiday category of the National Indie Excellence Awards and Honorable Mention in the 2018 Holiday category in the Readers’ Favorite Awards, this book completes the Christmas Courtroom Trilogy, revealing secrets about the North Pole kept from attorney Thad Raker, a man who, for reasons made clear in the first two books, now believes in Santa Claus.

When Raker is hired to defend the toy company that made the most popular Christmas present in 50 years—the Reindeer Hoverboard—he becomes entangled in the greatest threat to Christmas yet. And he learns that the survival of Santa’s North Pole village is at risk.

Standing in Raker’s way are a large class of angry plaintiffs, an unbelieving judge, the FBI, several North Pole conspirators and Hank Snow, Raker’s nemesis from his previous Christmas trials. Raker needs all the help he can get in this, his toughest case ever, but Snow is the guardian of many secrets and has his own plans for the future of Christmas.

Readers will delight in the surprising, multi-layered plot and cleverly-drawn characters, and their hearts will be warmed.
- Ann Campanella, author of Motherhood: Lost and Found

At once clever, heartfelt, and engaging, The Christmas Redemption is a merry legal adventure that is perfect for holiday reading.
Phillip Lewis, author of The Barrowfields

It's John Grisham meets Santa Claus, for a hoverboard ride that seamlessly blends courtroom drama, corruption, and Christmas with great humor--and with a message about the true meaning of Christmas. Landis Wade makes a True Believer out of me, in the magic of the holiday season!
Tracy Curtis, humorist and author of Holidazed
