An enjoyable story with a predictable outcome but well-written so that you still like the ride. I'll be reading the rest of the book in this series.
I typically do not read legal thrillers, but I got a the Kindle edition free, so it was more of book that I could test drive my Kindle with. As with a typical thriller the book is a page turner or a page tapper if you are using Kindle touch :) The plot is subtle, but tightly woven that will keep you engrossed till about 70 percent of the book after with it become a bit too obvious, after which you just want tap through the rest of the book.
I have read a handful of legal thrillers, but none from this author. Character portrayal seems to be her strength and the dialogues are brilliant. However a few places it seemed overdone.The book is a first of the Josie baylor-bates series from the author. I might pick up the next one, when I have a few hours to kill.
