"The Nickel Choir" by Poli Flores Jr. Receives the Esteemed Literary Titan Book Award

The acclaimed courtroom drama The Nickel Choir by Poli Flores Jr. has been honored with the Literary Titan Book Award, recognizing its exceptional storytelling, emotional depth, and profound exploration of justice and morality.

The Nickel Choir follows his award-winning debut novel, In The Shadow of the Sun, and immerses readers in the high-stakes world of the courtroom, where morality, fate, and redemption collide. The novel follows Linda Sanchez, a relentless Los Angeles prosecutor who has earned her place in the exclusive “Nickel Choir,” a group of attorneys who have each secured five death penalty convictions. Beneath her composed demeanor, Linda wrestles with guilt, loss, and the moral price of her pursuit of justice. As she faces a case that challenges everything she believes in, readers are taken on a journey through the complex terrain of law, conscience, and humanity itself.

In its review, Literary Titan praised the novel’s raw authenticity and emotional power: “The Nickel Choir, by Poli Flores Jr., is a dark, deeply human courtroom drama that pulls no punches… Flores’s background as a judge and lawyer bleeds through every page, giving the legal scenes an authenticity that feels impossible to fake… It’s a meditation on justice, morality, and survival in a world where answers are never clean.”

When justice demands a verdict, how much of your soul will you sacrifice to deliver it?

With vivid courtroom scenes, emotionally charged storytelling, and an unflinching look at the human cost of justice, The Nickel Choir stands as a masterful work of literary and legal fiction. Flores’s experience as a judge and attorney infuses the novel with realism and heart, drawing readers into a world where every verdict carries a personal price.
