I received a free copy from NetGalley. A legal thriller that is heavy on the thriller. It is a fast page turner with lots of twists and turns.

Thank you to NetGalley for the advanced digital copy of this book in exchange for my review. Here is my review:

This is a hard book to categorize. It IS a legal thriller, and a murder mystery, but somehow neither really explains it.
Aaron Littman is a successful attorney, in fact, the managing partner in a prestigious New York law firm. He is married, with twin teenaged daughters. But he still finds it necessary to have an affair with Faith Nichols, a federal district court judge in Manhattan. THEN they both compound the sin by continuing the relationship as Aaron represents a client in Faith's courtroom.
But nobody knows, right? WRONG. Nicolai Garkov, a Russian mobster charged with securities fraud, money laundering and obstruction of justice, suddenly lands on Faith's docket. And now, he wants Aaron to represent him. AND he will tell the world about the affair if Aaron doesn't not only represent him, but persuade Faith to acquit him.
Then Faith is murdered. You can probably guess the rest, except for a surprising and unexpected ending, which may or may not be believable, but everyone accepts it and lives happily ever after. Except for Faith, of course.
