First edition very fine
I tried the first Martel (Partners) and couldn't get in to it, This one, however, was very inviting. Washed up attorney Barrett Dickson gets drawn into the high profile trial of an ex-congressman who's wife was found brutally murdered. The plot is further enhanced by a juror who is very involved in the case. This story has almost too many facets but it was still a good read. I am going to try is next one.
This is, as best I can tell, Martel's 4th book and latest book. I've read two of the others. One wasn't worth finishing. One was ok. And this book is a great example of how an author can pull it together. Billy Strobe has all of the elements that I love in a book - great characters, great plot, interesting ideas and credibility. It starts with Billy in his 3rd year of law school which he is finishing up from behind bars at Soledad prison. He graduates. He gets out of prison and divides his time between clearing his late father's name and springing his 'innocent' friend from prison. It's just a great story.… (mer)
