Great!

I don’t typically like courtroom dramas, but this one is very different and held my interest throughout. What unexpected twists! It’s definitely worth a credit.

So good!

This was a great legal thriller with a heavy sprinkling of domestic suspense. I couldn’t put it down. I read a lot in this genre so my standards are high. Definitely worth a credit.

Fantastic Stiry

This was a brilliant novel, a must for lovers of crime with the court room setting, and the descriptions of inhumanity and the twists to follow made it a great read.

The best for me in 2019 so far!!

On average I listen to 3 books a week and I have to say this one just sucked me in almost from the start. Really well written and you can't help but to emotionally invest in each characters. The narrator did a great job too. Hard to believe this is the author's first. WELL DONE!!!

Riveting!

This book starts off with a bang. A wife calls 911 to report that she has killed her husband and she's happy that he's dead, only to later learn that her husband survived the gruesome attack.

Courtroom drama follows, with a riveting storyline that focuses on an aggressive prosecutor, a compelling defense, and jury transgressions.

The last portion of the book was even stronger than the beginning of the book, resulting in a "WOW!" ending that made this book a winner. The middle of the book, however, lacked sizzle and would have benefited from some editorial cuts and that is why this book failed to earn a 5-star review from me. Specifically, I felt that much too much time was devoted to the juror Lottie and her extra-marital affair with another juror.

The book's narrator was superb.

THE VERDICT: Overall, I enjoyed this book and I look forward to listening to the author's future titles.

Different, but average.

Originality took this book from a 2 to a 3, but the story was tedious and the characters not especially likable. I love legal dramas, but this isn't a great one.

This book was so predictable.

Nothing surprising here. You knew who it was well before the end. What a waste of money.
