 I picked this up based on the recommendation from one of my favorite reading podcasts - Sarah's Bookshelves Live. This was a bit out of my norm - I rarely read any books about organized crime and I rarely read court procedurals although I may have to start reading more of those based on how much I enjoyed this. Edge of your seat propulsive - more action than one would expect from a court procedural or legal thriller. I really enjoyed the MC Eddie Flynn con artist turned lawyer. The audiobook narration was engaging and well done. There was nothing that I didn't enjoy about this. I'll definitely be continuing this series.
