A Gripping ReadSam Johnstone is back at it. He’s defending someone accused of a heinous crime. One the defendant didn’t commit? Well that’s what jurors are for, to decide evidence in hand what happened, or more likely, who did what! Sam finds himself in these nearly impossible cases. Nearly. But he’s one helluva lawyer. So sit back, well try to sit back because you’ll be on the edge of your seat for a lot of this story, and enjoy the ride! These books are a great series and you can begin with an...
Book two in series. So far I've really liked both books. Protagonist Sam Johnstone is an emotionally and physically damaged lawyer with a severe drinking problem to boot. Working in a small Wyoming town that isn't very forgiving, Sam seems to be annoyed with the "hero" label everyone puts onto him. Working with a partner who is more about the dollars than the law doesn't bode well for Sam. I read this one in just two sittings finding it very hard to put down. I'm looking forward to next entry in...
Once I started reading, I could not put it down. A college athlete, who hopes to go pro, is a suspect in a high profile murder. The plot is wonderfully complex, the characters well developed and the storytelling skilled. There are multiple story lines, which are all tied up in the end. I enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next one. I received this book free and chose to make a voluntary, unbiased review.
Gay basketball manager found dead. Star black player had argument with him, seen on video following him. Newspaper reporter looking for sensational story blows it out of proportion as a hate crime. Veteran/lawyer, fighting his own demons, takes the case. Lots of ingredients, and the author does a good job of mixing them together in an interesting book. I received an advanced digital copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Drugs, DNA and a defense - that’s the crux of this book. Add in a small college hot black basketball player looking to turn pro, some homophobic comments, and an all white community in Custer, Wyoming and you have a pot ready to boil over! This book definitely qualifies as a legal thriller, emphasis on thriller. It’s fascinating to watch Sam try and get straight answers, even from his client, to try and figure out how to prove his innocence. Did Devonte commit murder or not? I received a free ad...
Attorney Sam has his work cut out for him. Two different type of people get into an argument. Obviously a murder occurs and Sam tries to solve what happened. Fantastic plot and characters. Don’t miss out once it’s released.
What a great read this was! I enjoyed it as much as “Misjudged,” maybe more. Our main character, Sam Johnstone is back, defending another client that nobody believes is innocent (except his mother). I was glad to see that the judge didn’t seem so obviously prejudiced against Sam this time around. The story was intense, and there were many twists and turns, culminating in an ending that I never saw coming. Mr. Chandler knows how to write complex and flawed characters, and keep you on the edge of
Writer Needs to Hone Skills, Not Hate Women, and Breathe Life into the StoryThis is the first time in years I really feel that potential is either being suppressed or squandered. This book series could really be great. Am not sure who is worse the author or editor...is there an editor? I have spent my long life reading legal mysteries, thrillers, whatever you want to call them in every genre of the legal world. From continent to continent. The worst thing an author can do is template writing and...
Really interesting and addictive KU read
The most honest part of this book for me was when lawyer Johnstone is driving through town after female reporter trying to make her bones describes the town and crime as being strife with racism and homophobia. Lawyer Johnstone sees children playing in the park, ladies shopping in the local shops, all is calm and peaceful. The accused of course has to be a black athlete that we are never sure whether he is gay or not is accused of the crime. The book does not follow the solving of the crime, nor...
Alcoholic attorney Sam Johnston defends Davonte, a talented black college basketball player accused of murder in a novel that has many good elements. There are some interesting characterizations. The novel deals well with contemporary issues. I wish more writers would condemn people who attack or defend an individual solely because of their race or sexual orientation. And the reporter whose main interest is a good story no matter the facts sounds very familiar. In addition, the courtroom scenes
It was good. I don't know if it was quite as good as the first one, but the author clearly got a little more into his writing groove on this one. It's more succinct but still bring you through the whole trial process. I would love to say it's a little over the top with the political issues, but in reality, it's pretty spot on for how the media treats everything. The most unrealistic things about this book (and the one before it) it that everybody wants to do the right thing, people who don't do
