Title: Adequate, but didn't live up to the other reviews
Review: This book was an adequate read, but not in the same class as Robert Parker or Michael Connelly. It seemed surprisingly brief for a novel, but perhaps brevity is a virtue when one has not so much to say. While I suppose no one is fond of lawyers, and it IS a work of fiction, I did not find the attorneys in the book to be very believeable. However, in one area, the author truly excels. His ear for the behavior of your stereotypical white trash rednecks is tuned quite finely. Write what you know best, I say. This book was mildly entertaining, but Scott Turow and John Grisham should continue to sleep easily.
