This is the second book that I’ve read in the Eddie Flynn series, though it’s the fifth book in the series. I previously read Thirteen, which was a fast paced and fun legal thriller and very entertaining on audio. I’ve been having a hard time finding audiobooks that hold my attention, so I decided to pick this up since I liked the previous book so much. Fifty Fifty didn’t disappoint and I think the Eddie Flynn series will now be my audiobook go to when I need something fast paced that holds my attention.

This book has such a great premise - two sisters call 911 to report that their father has been murdered and each blame the other. The entire time I went back and forth on which sister was the murderer. There were some elements on the plot that were over the top and a bit implausible, but it didn’t bother me too much. It was just the type of listen I needed and now I’m on the hunt for other legal thrillers that will scratch the same itch.
