I just finished reading The Reversal, book #3 in the Lincoln Lawyer series by Michael Connelly. It’s always great to slip back into a familiar series and see old friends like Mickey Haller and Detective Bosch. Mickey Haller, normally counsel for the defense, crosses the aisle in this case to act as an independent prosecutor against a child killer who was freed after twenty-four years due to DNA evidence.

I just finished reading Whisper Network by Chandler Baker. It is a Grisham-like legal suspense book about women in society, the workforce, and law in particular. If you are the type who does not like a book with an agenda, this one is not for you, because it is very clearly intended to address sexual abuse in the workplace and the means used to keep victim’s complaints from ever seeing the light of day.

I have been reading The Reckoning, by John Grisham. I generally like Grisham—at least his legal thrillers—but this one has some issues. The first part discusses the murder and outcome. The second part delves back into the past and spends half of the book detailing all of Pete Banning’s experiences in the second world war, where he served in the Philippines. All of the relevant backstory was given in part one and the second part really doesn’t contribute anything to the plot or the reader’s understanding of the crime.

I am reading Lisa Scottoline’s Damaged. This one will have you fighting beside lawyer Mary DiNunzio all the way as she investigates a special education/abuse case. I have just started with this one, but can see a number of ways the plot might develop. Things are not always as they seem!

I am reading John Grisham’s The Racketeer this week. It is classic Grisham, one of his better books. The twists and turns will keep you guessing from beginning to end.

I am reading a John Grisham novel this week, one of his legal thrillers. I have been disappointed with a couple of Grisham novels lately, but am enjoying Gray Mountain.

My teaser today is from the master of legal thrillers, John Grisham, The Whistler. Actually, I just finished another Grisham as well, The Rooster Bar, a Christmas gift from my hubby. The Rooster Bar is more of a comedic piece, but The Whistler is nice and deep.
