Welcome to Litsy!

This is full of shady high-power lawyers, pharmaceutical companies, and stock investors making as many millions as possible while a bad drug is exposed, regardless of the impact a drug has to a patient. I wanted to be done - gratuitous spending and money-grabbing is all kinds of ick. Yet, I was surprising intrigued by Washington DC public defender Clay pulled into that world and finding his way out.

Entertaining and a quick read 😃

2nd bk from a series curated by bernadine evaristo of modern black Br writers. This was a compelling legal thriller set in the 90s abt a talented black female criminal barrister from a working class background. When a lucrative corporate fraud bruef is given to her, she is subject to prejudice from members of the bar but of more concern an affluent client who seems too good to be true. A page turner. Will look for more from the author + the series

I was equal parts entertained by this book and entertained by being entertained. How did JG have me root for a lawyer faking his own death leaving wife and child while funneling $90 million (1992 dollars) from his slimy law partners!? Then after 4 years he orchestrates his own arrest. I dunno, but it was good and I didn‘t give thought to this contemporary fiction being 28 years old!

I very much enjoyed seeing behind the legal profession‘s curtain🥸 I find it all very fascinating, always have. The verbal sparring etc… between the Plaintiff & Defence counsels had me LOL several times🤣 Definitely not my last Grisham or legal thriller📚🤓

My mom loves John Grisham, so I often get her his books for gifts! #yougifted #aboutabook @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

After starting & stalling on this physical one, I decided to try it as an audio🎧📖 Worked like a charm! So happy that I‘m able to go beyond non-fiction in audiobook format🤗

A great legal thriller, as I‘d hoped🤞🏻😅 I‘ve been collecting ‘Grisham‘ for years!🤗 I‘ll be reading in publication order. What I don‘t own, I‘ll get on loan. Let the journey begin😝📚🎧

This was an action packed novel. A family of four are murdered in their home. The characters: Russian mobsters, police, lawyers, prosecutors, teachers and others were introduced. Many people had potential motives for murder. Sex and drugs were included as the chapters unfolded. 4/5
