Liars Dice is not a typical legal thriller. It is more like "Swingers" meets "Witness for the Prosecution." It is sometimes funny, occasionally poignant, and it always strives to be faithful to the... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a great book. I so badly could not put it down that I read the whole book in 3 days. I do not read a lot, but had to read this book for a Legal class I am taking in college. I am so glad we had to read it. I would recommend it to anyone. I met Bob Gust, the author of the book and he is just as funny in person. GREAT BOOK!

Hey - this is a really good read. Author has great insight into human behavior and motivation. The story is woven around a creative legal situation, one that will absolutely not be found elsewhere. If you like legal fiction, you will very much enjoy this book. Great character development. I think I've met some of these people and really knew them by the end.
Fun Legal Thriller With Some Interesting Twists
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This book delivered on its promise to break out of the legal thriller mode by adding humor, romance, and poignancy. Amazingly, the facts underlying the main case actually happened in Northern Minnesota--while the book takes some nice twists to tie up all the open questions about what really happened. At times, the story is laugh-out-loud funny as it shifts back and forth from Minneapolis to the Iron Range in Northern Minnesota. That does not detract from the intrigue, however, and at other times it is the suspense that keeps the reader turning the pages. The romantic subplot is more than a diversion, as it ties in with the legal dispute that drives the story. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
