Joe Lee's first novel, On the Record, offers an insiders view of one our country's greatest assests... Mississippi grit. His characters abrasivly rub one another raw, yet the end result is scrumpious!As a native Mississippian myself, I firmly believe that Joe Lee's witty tale tells more about the inside working of political power and the personal stakes involved in playing the game. Beyond layers of deception surrounding his heroic female lead, Joe Lee uncovers an unfettered human response to career women, love-hate relationships, fright and flight.Indeed, On the Record is a keeper, and Joe Lee is a writer the publishing industry should keep up with.
I couldn't put it down!!!

This book is a great read! If you like a page turner filled with suspense, a little romance and characters that come alive you'll love On The Record. It kept me on the edge of my seat wandering how Maureen was going to handle the situation she found herself in. And the ending....a great surprise
Suspense To The End
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I found this novel to be a good read. I read it the same week that I read John Grisham's King of Torts and I found this novel to hold my attention in a similar manner. The story line concerns government corruption and influence peddling in the Attorney General's office. I found myself to be rooting for the success of the main character in her efforts to expose the corruption while maintaining her job, her reputation, and. possibly her life. As the plot twists and turns, the reader is repeatedly hit with new revelations and unexpected relationships between the characters.This book carries the mystery to its final pages and the success or failure of the main character's efforts remains in doubt right up to the end.I highly recommend this book and am anxiously awaiting the next!

I was hooked after the first chapter and could not put it down until it was finished. It was fun reading about places that I've been. It was also a clever mystery. I can't wait for a second book. After reading this book, you will never look at car dealer advertising the same way. It's an easy read -- A great beach book!

This book keeps you on your toes and interested. It has a great local flair about Mississippi politics. Anyone that enjoys a mystery with a hint of corrupt local governmental leaders will love this book. I read it straight through. I can't wait for another book by this author. He wrote a wonderful book.
