6/1 - This is a good legal thriller with the ADA's son as the main, if not only, suspect of the murder of a boy from his class.

There were really no surprises with this book. Oh sure, there were plot twists. But generally it was a typical courtroom drama. The writing was fine,I did think the pace was a little plodding at times. I am easily distracted and found myself wandering off when it got too detailed. In terms of charac...
