Her, Too

By Bonnie Kistler

Book Overview

Defending an accused rapist, a high-powered lawyer learns firsthand the terrible truth about her client . . . a discovery that propels her on a quest for justice and revenge in this addictively readable thriller from the author of The Cage.

Kelly McCann is a fighter. She's fought to build a successful legal career, fought for the special needs of her family, and tirelessly fought for her clients. Her specialty is defending men accused of sex crimes--falsely accused, she always maintains. Her detractors call her a traitor to her gender, but she doesn't care. Badass and brilliant, Kelly simply loves to win, and as the story opens, she's done it again, securing an acquittal for a renowned scientist accused of sexually assaulting his female employees.

But the thrill of her victory is short-lived. That very night she, too, falls victim of a brutal sexual assault. And almost as horrific as the attack is the fact that she can't tell anyone it happened--not without destroying her career in the process.

Kelly has never backed down from a fight and she's not about to start pulling her punches now. Joining forces with her rapist's other victims, the shrewd lawyer plans to turn the tables on him. It's not only about justice--these wronged women are out for revenge.

But someone, it seems, is out for them, and one by one, they find themselves facing even greater danger.

Powerful People and Their Secrets

I'm really not sure how I feel about this one. Lots of twists and turns, rather a convoluted story and the ultimate villains in this were two separate entities. Kelly was not the most likeable female main character and at times you definitely have to suspend belief. Sometimes the story dragged for me and at other times it was fast-paced. It did make me stop and think about choices and what is behind the moral decisions we make. I'll not rehash the story as others have done that before me, but I can say that I know I couldn't be a lawyer and defend someone I knew was guilty, or suspected they were guilty which brings me back to the choices we make and why. Ultimately I am left thinking about the story and wondering what's next for Kelly. And no, I can't imagine a sequel.
