Title: Too formulaic to really grip
Product review: Freedman writes better than most of his rivals - especially the legal thriller authors, many of whom rarely rise above cardboard where the characters are concerned - but I found I could see where this story was going to easily to fast. Why? Because I could sense the author setting up his 'surprises'. They don't spring lifelike from the grain of what the story is about. They're simply assembled - albeit quite well.
