Trying any case is a war capital murder the worst kind of war. Who done it and why. Great story
Lawer / Crime procedurals, Martini’s books I’ve read several times.
Fast-paced and wonderful characters. The author is constantly developing the story in unusual ways that keeps you wanting to read more.
Would read it again and would recommend it to others.
Held my interest and it will keep you guessing to the end.
When I go to the beach for a few days and want to read purely for fun and entertainment…Martini is my go-to author…
Well written, enjoyed a lot!

Has a great plot, excellent characters, and was well written
Very good writer and language command.
I think this book was well written. The ending had good foundation and even though it was a little surprising, it was not illogical and in looking back in the story line, the hints were there. I especially enjoyed the court scenes.
Great book. As always Steve Martini writes an excellent mystery.
Read this book quickly. The vocabulary was impressive and the storyline could not have been better.
A good read!
This is a fantastic book! Once I started reading, I could not put it down. Very good!
Mr. Martini has climbed to the top of my list as best legal-thriller author. It’s quite apparent that he has actually practiced as a trial attorney in both the DA’s office and as Defense attorney. He totally nails the politics of all DA offices and shows one how to operate with integrity as a defense attorney. His plots are incredibly delicious as well. I’m in love with “Paul Madriani”.
I HAVE READ EVERY BOOK. I REALLY DO ENJOY HIS WRITING.
Fast-paced, a don’t-want-to-put down yarn. Martini just does not disappoint.
This book held my interest from the very start and every time I thought I had figured out who did it, I was wrong!! Excellent court room action, great characters and good story. I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes a good Mystery with Courtroom/Trial action!
Good writer who always has twists and turns in his books.
