Not Hard-Boiled, but Perfectly Done

This book has everything I want in a mystery--human drama, plot twists, surprises, and a hopeful ending--and doesn't have what I don't want--excessive violence. I've enjoyed Kate Wilhelm's courtroom dramas and was glad to find another good author now that I've read them all--Mr. Friedman's plot was even a little more plausible than hers are. I'm looking forward to ejoying more of his books.

WONDERFUL

I picked this book up from the airport store on my way back from the USA, really knowing nothing about the author. When I arrived Buenos Aires I have read the first half of it, and I couldn't wait to reach home to continue my reading!!!Congratulations to Friedman! I have already purchased two more books written by him, by e-mail!

WOW

I picked up this book at the library because an old man, who had heard me talking to my mom about what I had read, told me I would like it. I was a little skeptical about an author I had never heard of, who looked like something out of the 70's. Boy, was I wrong! I got through it in 2 nights, only stopping because I fell asleep. The story starts off slow, but when he gets going, Friedman writes just as well as Grisham and Turow. And the plot is electrifying. Who would have ever thought of a murder victim's father defending the accused, angry daughter-in-law. The end was enough to make me really think. I never would have thought of the real killer. A very good book.
