3.5 stars

This was a well-thought-out plot, one I felt filled with tension. David Ellis wrote a thought provoking legal mystery that was both engaging and entertaining.

There were areas where this book dragged a little and hindered the pace of the book although ample amount of time has been given for the character development of all the characters. The character development was phenomenal; never have I felt so invested in a fictional person's ethical and moral dilemmas. I couldn’t help but find myself rooting for and against the main characters, sometimes simultaneously wanting victory and demise.

On the flip side, although a promising premise, the narrative doesn’t quite deliver on the tension, despite a startling twist of a climax and so a three star rating.

I liked the drama and there was a LOT of drama and legal jargon, if you love lengthy legal thrillers this is it.
