Title: Weak, But Reads Easy
Review: This book was quite a disappointment; it offers no insight into criminal prosecution in LA (which Darden should have provided) and ultimately is just another mystery novel. The authors burden themselves with too many characters, but have no interest in realistic dialgoue--everything sounds tinny and fake.The chapters are uniformly short (3-4 pages, tops), which makes reading easy. The plot is ho-hum; standard thriller stuff, with an admirable twist at the end. However, this book could have been so much more--Darden could offer an interesting in-depth look into criminal prosecution, but instead contents himself to do a half-baked job. Much like his work prosecuting OJ Simpson.
