Book Review:
Generally when I read a book for
review I have recently chosen to review the book, however in this case I chose
to review the book several months ago, so when it was time to review this book
I totally could not remember what it was about, however having worked for the
courts I had a pretty good idea it was about a murder or other major crime
since Attorney Client privilege is about the confidentiality between and
attorney and their client so that the client and accused that keeps the attorney
from being compelled to testify against their client. However in my case I worked for the court so
I had the confidentiality clause, but I worked in family law and testified to
what went on during my meetings with clients.
The only time I ever had an issue was when a client confessed to a crime
to me and I couldn’t do anything about it.
I definitely couldn’t be an attorney… but my daughter will probably end
up one… she loves to argue.
Anyway, back to the book, the
storyline was excellent. I was kept
guessing until the end of the book. I loved the story but occasionally got a
little lost. The story seemed to jump
around a lot at the beginning without any seeming correlation. The relevance of each component was
disjointed until near the end. Some
people enjoy this style of writing, but it turned me off a little. Not enough to not want to read anything else
by this author. I will definitely read
more by her, but I will keep in mind that this is not my favorite style of
writing.
I give
this book 4 out of 5 clouds.
