Justice, Silence, and One Swing That Changed Everything

At first, it looks like another legal drama—but Golden Promise by Richard Malmed flips the script before the ink is dry. One golf match. One woman’s shattered sense of safety. And one lawyer whose five iron swing may have saved a life… or set off a chain of retaliation that can’t be stopped.

Peter Stern is no stranger to the courtroom, but what he stumbles into at a country club one night isn’t just a case—it’s a gut-punch reminder that justice doesn’t always come easy. Especially when power, wealth, and silence are working overtime. As secrets unravel and lawsuits loom, Peter finds himself caught between protecting the vulnerable and standing up to a system stacked against them.
