Philadelphia lawyer turned novelist (what a concept!) Scottoline has already won a best original paperback Edgar for Final Appeal. Now she might just nail down a hardcover one for her latest book -- a lovely combination of high energy, imagination and nasty good humor mostly directed against lawyers. Her central character this time out is a definite keeper: Benedetta Rosato, "Bennie" to everyone but her mother, a towering blonde who rows to keep her body in shape and duels with the police on a daily basis to keep her legal talents sharp. Most of Bennie's clients have a gripe against the cops, so Philadelphia's finest are less than sympathetic to her cause when she becomes the chief suspect in the murder of her ex-lover and soon to be ex-law partner. Hiding out in a truly original way, Bennie uses (and abuses) a big law firm to help find the real killers; you'll find yourself laughing and gasping all the way. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Reader Reviews
Amazing hard to put down!!![.], June 22, 2003 Reviewer: bustopher_jones from Surrey Uk This was the second bnook of hers i read and wow what can i say an amazing read!!! I really liked this book because we got introduced to Bennie Roseto an up an coming women lawer. I also liek how she first feel in love with Grady, her now long partern. There were other quirky character in ther like a this guy named Sam, who was totally into the Luney Tunes. It was a very interesting story with many twist and turns along the way. If you are an avant fan of Liza Scottline you will love this book and the subsequent other containing Bennies. If u have just reading law thriller this is one u should not miss!! I believe that it is a must read for all out there!!![.]
