"One of the best books I've read in a long time! Lisa grabbed you in the first paragraph and didn't let you go until the last page. Great cast of strong, determined women who would not rest until justice was served. This will be one of my all-time favorite books." — Barb (5 out of 5 stars)

" Another great combo of author Scottoline with the voice of Barbara Rosenblatt! Always one of those where it's hard to get out of the car while listening to! "

" Not the best Lisa Scottoline I have read..... "
" I love this series. Lots of twists and turns! "
" It was "rough" not the best book in the series. "
" Interesting enough story, but not very well written. "
" Excellent to the very last chapter. "
" Justice system at its worst? "
" I was so cold while reading this book! All you have to do is have fictional characters butt deep in snow and *I* freeze my tail off reading their adventures! Good read. "
" Book #45 read in 2009 "
" Another great suspense-filled Scottoline mystery! "
" I enjoy reading Lisa Scottoline's books. They hold my interest. This thriller has got to be a lawyer's worst nightmare. "
" Not as good as the previous entry in this series, but still an enjoyable read. "
" The characters and story line was great. The writing left a lot to be desired. The constant use of the "f" word took away from me giving any higher rating. If you took the "f" word out of this book, I bet it would cut 100 pages off the length. "
" Meh.... Had few and far between moments. Way too much bullshit!!! Sorry no other way to say it. Way too much going on and no reason for it. It is like a soap opera playing out. Geez! Onto the next book in the series. Cross your fingers it will get better for me!!! PLEASE!!!! "
" Not my favorite Scottoline book. "
" Slow beginning. But towards the middle it picked up. I new the ending was coming, but was still a little shocked at how it went down. "
" I liked it but the end wrapped up pretty quick. "
" fast paced action but not all the threads were tied up. I wish they had made some of the characters actions at the end a little clearer. "
" Loved the plot changes...kept me guessing "
" I usually like this author, but I found this book started really slow. It took me a long time to get interested in the storyline - I kept picking up other books or magazines instead. It did pick up the pace and finish strong. "
" I couldn't put this down - looks like I found a new author and genre to enjoy. Although this book did read a little like a lifetime movie, and had a few too many characters and details- it was still good "
" A good fun read....keeps you entertained. I do like the series. It is not always the same person but they are somewhere in the storyline. Need to find the next one. "
" Not as good as the last ones. But still an awesome read! "
" I really did enjoy this book. It was written in a different style than I usually read. "
" 3.5 stars. Good story, a bit predictable, funny audio performance by Barbara Rosenblat, but a little too much language and violence for me. "
" Another great story with another fascinating character with a complex back story that comes out in bits and pieces as the book unfolds. Scottoline is a master at characterization in the midst of the plot-driven genre of mystery/suspense. Impressive. "
" Riveting! Had me on edge the whole time and had trouble putting the book down. This one is a keeper!! "
" I've been a fan since she feed me tasty cakes at a book reading. Her books are dependably enjoyable, and obviously written by a (once) practicing attorney given the dead-on details of associate life. "
