I really like the humor that Lescroart injected into the book. And though some of the lawyer terms are technical ~~ he was good about explaining the terms in layman's terms so I can understand it without feeling like a dunce.
Dooher is the main character ~~ suspected of killing his wife. Christina, the gorgeous woman who falls in love with Dooher, stands by her man. Wes Farrell is another lawyer who defends his best friend Tom Dooher from the charges ... and all of their lives are changed by his actions and statements. Glitzy (I'm not sure of the spelling here) is the investigator who is hot on Dooher's trail. And they all make for an interesting read as they work to solve the mystery.
I picked this book up by accident ~~ and though it doesn't rate to be my favorite book of the year, it did pass a lovely, lazy Sunday afternoon time with lots of ease and suspense.
If you're looking for a book with mystery and gripping suspense, I would recommend this book. But be warned, once you pick it up, you won't be able to put it down. Best for a long air flight or for a lazy Sunday afternoon in the garden.
