I’ve read several of these legal thrillers but I missed this one because it seemed too much like some of Methos’ other books.  I finally grabbed it when I was seriously ready for another legal drama/thriller.  This is more of a legal drama than thriller. There is plenty of courtroom and law-office action – there are simply no guns and no chase scenes.  We know who has been accused and arrested.  The problem is to get the accused either found guilty or acquitted.  I like the twists some of these novels take en route.  This book was adequate – not great.
