About this listen

Grace Rossi is starting over after a divorce, and a part-time job with a federal appeals court sounds perfect. But she doesn't count on being assigned to an explosive death penalty appeal. Nor does she expect ardor in the court in the form of an affair with the chief judge. Then Grace finds herself investigating a murder, unearthing a secret bank account and following a trail of bribery and judicial corruption that's stumped even the FBI. In no time at all, Grace under fire takes on a whole new meaning.

Critic reviews

"Scottoline, an Edgar nominee for her first book, Everywhere That Mary Went, has again pulled together an intriguing cast of characters and a smart mystery to make an exciting, action-packed read." (Publishers Weekly)

5 if not for intermittent naivete

I am a fan. I love Lisa's novels. This would get a 5 if not for the winces I experienced for expressions of naivete that were inconsistent with the character. And, honestly, the general public. Intermittent incredulous ('Would he REALLY...?!') reactions sabotaged the tone of entire interactions.
I'm always offended with disrespect for other's beliefs on any level. 'Jesus', 'Christ', and derivatives are frequently used as an expletive. I don't tolerate this any more than racism or antisemitism.

Fast paced drama

I got through this book in one day; it is interesting, dramatic, keeps the reader guessing. A good story for anyone who likes mystery, whodunnits, detective work. Well performed.

Poor ending

I thought the whole book was entertaining and captured the thriller aspect of advertised genre. But once the climax of the book was finished the whole book just ended. It was kind of like reading a letter with no or little closing.

Very entertaining, fast pacef

Rapidly becoming one of my favorite authors. Twisting plot keeps you guessing. Highly recommended. If you like strong female characters you'll love Rossi.
