Law student Rachel North interns with the Boston DA's office even though her lawyer husband wants her to work with him. This book is a cat and mouse game. A battle for justice which becomes a battle for survival. As the twists and turns and secrets are revealed, it leaves the reader wondering which characters are telling the truth. The novel has more than one story to follow. It is a perfect read for lovers of legal thrillers.

Wow...Now this was a great murder/mystery book, I so loved listening to this one...would highly recommend it

Stick with this one until the end. 4 stars because the protagonist felt a little generic feisty girl at first and I walked away for a month in the middle to read other things. But damn, the second half! The shifting relationships between characters! The second half of the book and final twist are why this one is up for industry awards. Good read. And Ryan‘s excellent descriptions of Boston delight, as always. #suspense #plottwists

I thought that this book was okay, but I found myself getting very confused. The book kept going from present day to six years earlier and three different trials took place throughout the book and I couldn't keep track of who was on trial for whose death. And, while the ending was quite the twist, I don't think that it made up for the confusion and mediocrity of the rest of the book. 🌟🌟🌟

Very good!

Got to meet the amazing Hank Philippi Ryan this evening at an event sponsored by the Oakmont Library and Mystery Lover‘s Bookshop.

Off to a strong start! Compelling action and twists like most Ryan books. Ambitious female protagonist (like most Ryan books). Good narration. Good listen for busy chore days. #audiobooks #mystery

First book of October! 🔪

Does sitting in a café with a book put anyone else at ease? It‘s one of my favorite things to do when I have time.

HAPPY PUB DAY!!

I don't like legal thrillers, but this was a suspense/mystery/thriller about lawyers, which I like just fine! Fast paced and deviously plotted, with Hank's characteristic wit and razor sharp dialogue. She's done it again! Another stellar read with a crafty twist!

Thanks to Hank's newsletter and Netgalley for the ARC! (If you like her books, sign up for her newsletter - it's fun and there are perks!)

Winning is the name of the game. Jury tampering, witness tampering…all by someone within the legal system? Can this be true? And perhaps even murder to prevent exposure? The action is dizzying, heart-stopping. Everyone has an agenda…Who can you believe?

This is the second book of Ryan‘s that I‘ve read- and it‘s a page turner for sure! But the characters, the story of #Jealousy and some easy-to-see coming twists frustrated me at times! Still, it‘s definitely entertaining and I can see how this would be a real discussion starter! #AugustABC @Eggs
