Fair Warning is book 3 of Michael Connelly’s Jack McEvoy series. I don’t think that I’ve read either of the previous two books, but there was enough backstory to understand the broad strokes of what had happened earlier in the series.

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.

David Baldacci is one of my favourite suspense/thriller writers. I picked up The Forgotten, thinking that I hadn’t read it before, but I have. But Baldacci’s books are detailed enough to read again without getting bored, so I decided to reread it.

I am currently reading James Patterson’s The 17th Suspect (book #17 in The Women’s Murder Club series). I have enjoyed a number of the other books in this series, though I couldn’t tell you exactly how many. They are always a good read. Clever, familiar characters with heart, a mystery or trial, several unexpected twists and turns.
