I enjoyed this book. There are several reviews complaining that it is too short, not enough detail, too easily wrapped up. Sometimes I want to read a book that is not 400 pages, that still gives you plenty to consider while reading and after you are finished; and is written in eloquent prose. This book fit the bill quite nicely.
Nobody can do legal thrillers like Scott Turow, and he doesn't disappoint in this story of an appellate judge receiving death threats as he considers a politically and emotionally charged case.
