While a bit of a slog through court-room scenes the balance of this tale remains compelling enough to keep turning the pages. Three separate crimes in one wrapper keep you on your toes.

Do you like your mystery books heavy on interpersonal relationships, attorneys and court cases? I like to pick books based on their covers, though they can be misleading. In this case it definitely was! I was expecting a book about a hip restaurant when in fact this book was a cross between a legal procedural and a mystery but heavy on the grind that must make up a murder trial. I'm not sure how close to the truth this was but it seemed realistic to me and easy to read. Expect a Major plot twist towards the end!
