"I really liked this book - suspense, twists, dirt... but it had one of those "slightly disappointing tie it all together in one chapter" endings... I wish they would have expanded the ending of the trial just a bit more. " — Angie (4 out of 5 stars)

" A really well-done 2nd book to the series. Fast paced, great character development & a wonderful plot. Highly recommend! "
" I felt like I was in court. It got me thinking about being a juror. "
" Good "filler" book. I was in between books & this one was lying around so I read it. Very quick read. Takes place in San Francisco which I liked because I can picture the various places the author was talking about. "
" Nancy 5 stars; Ron 5 stars "
" New author for me and I'm enjoying the San Francisco lawyer! "
" This is the second book in the Mike Daley series and it was good. I like how Siegel presents the cases and it makes it easy to read and follow. Plan on reading the rest of the series. "

" What a fun read! I loved the San Francisco setting, the insight into criminal defense strategies, the well-paced plot, and the characters. I look forward to reading more by Siegel. "
" A long book with just what the title implies. I went into it expecting the outcome provided. The characters were weak and the story tedious. "
" Shows much the same style as his first crime mystery novel, which is enjoyable, but perhaps a bit TOO similar. It also leaves several dangling threads that I wished were explained in the end. "
" Interesting only because of it's 2001 San Francisco locations and, maybe, in what not to do in writing a mystery (tell everything, lack of action, lack of protagonist action in solving the mystery, anti-climax). "
" Good book full of court room drama and legal terms. Nice crime solving amidst the story-telling. "
