Bad Blood (Abridged) Audiobook

" Brendan Quillian--sandhog made good--stands accused of hiring a hitman to murder his wife. His past cmes back to haunt him and we learn about the underground cities of New York City and the water tunnels that hydrate the city. Quite good! "

" I enjoyed this book, but nothing lifted it out of the ordinary for me "

" great lawyer book! "

" I liked the combination of courtroom and real life in new york, the tunnels. The sexist remarks of alex's colleagues/friends annoyed me, i could not imagine a new york woman accept that. "

" Interesting book about a murder trial. "

" This is a good dective story with good detail of NYC. "

" More fun NYC history, with a murder or 3. "

" Typically, I'd read this one before, though the memory for detail certainly let me down, and it was like reading it for the very first time. Still excellent. "

" This was not one of Fairstein's best reads, in my opinion. I found myself bored in a few places. They only highlights was the interaction between Alex and Mike. "

" it was very good as always, love the ny history she weaves in "

" Nothing special. Not sure how this writer and character have a series. "

" I found this book pretty tedious with the frequent historical explanations clumsily inserted and interrupting the action. The characters were not terribly engaging and I was glad to finish. "

" A great read. I enjoyed this book the first book I have read from Fairstein. I plan on reading more of her books. A page turner. "

" it's summer reading, and I have a thing for subterranean new york. "

" Not having lived in New York City, I found it fascinating reading about the underground city of old subways, the water system, etc. "

" I enjoyed learning about building NYC and the Sand Hogs who blasted out tunnels and built bridges. Interesting murder mystery with some good plot twists. "

" Very difficult to finish this one....I was not engaged in the story. I never have a hard time finishing a book, but I was really kind of bored with this one until the very end. "

" Found another author that I love! "

" A good listen. Kept me quite interested during my commute. "

" Part of a Reader's Digest. This one was okay, and while it was hard to put down at times it didn't really hold my interest and reviewing it a few weeks later I can't even remember much of what it was about. I fact, I'm mixing it up with another book and can't remember it at all. "

" I would love to go back and start this series with book one! I loved it. "

" She's a great writer... "

" This book had several twists and turns that keep you guessing up until the very end. "

" Am really liking this author. Will continue to read her series. "

" Are those tunnels really down there??? "

" SUMMER READING CLUB: "It was a 'great summer read' with so many facts about New York City. The stories about Sand Hogs, their families and even Woodhaven Cemetery made this an informative murder mystery." "

" This Fairstein novel was something out of CSI or TruTV. Not one of my favorite storylines. Too many characters and interwoven subplots. I found myself zoning out a bit in this one. "

" All the talk about Smrzie's jury duty put me in the mood for a legal thriller. So far not much legaling but okay. --- I should have given up when I began to be annoyed but I plowed ahead anyway and was totally disappointed. Ah well. "

" I like the historical info but I do wish Mike would quit lecturing at every turn. Also, the repetition of "Coop,...." and "Mike,..." is annoying. No one talks like that. "

" This book wasn't too bad. It jumped into the action pretty quickly. I'd never heard of the author. The cover actually caught my attention. I don't know if I'll read any more of her books but I wouldn't say no to it. "

" Nothing special. Not sure how this writer and character have a series. "

" I've enjoyed most of the Alexandra Cooper books - but the sarcastic wit of Mike Chapman is getting a bit much. Although the sarcasm is supposed to hide how he really feels about her - I think this book took it to new heights. "

" Found another author that I love! "

" Interesting book about a murder trial. "

" Linda Fairstein knows what she is talking about. Her court scenes were, no doubt, based on personal experience, However her characters were a little two dimensional and the plot did not really move at much of a pace. Worth reading but this was not a book I looked forward to picking up each night. "

" SUMMER READING CLUB: "It was a 'great summer read' with so many facts about New York City. The stories about Sand Hogs, their families and even Woodhaven Cemetery made this an informative murder mystery." "

" I couldn't really get into this book. I thought the characters were weak and the dialog not very convincing. Ho-hum. "

" A good listen. Kept me quite interested during my commute. "

" Really loved the description of the water systems and the subway systems under NYC as background to the mystery. "
