Summary: a strong novel one that is worth a second look.
Comment: A great novel written by a great author easily can be compared to any of John Grisham's works. storline is about down on their luck lawyers at a Vancover Law firm who are second guessing their profession when it seems that after one of the firm's lawyers are bruttally beaten to death because he defended a low life client and this mysterious "excutioner's list". Unforgettable Characters the author takes aim at the world's most hated profession and makes the reader understand the dangers and the high handed trechery that goes along with the "business as usual" attitude. One great story will keep the reader turing pages right to the very end.

Summary: A Brilliant Drama
Comment: This is one of the best books I've read in ages. I highly recommend it. William Deverall's characters are real and his characterization is insightful. This book grabs you from the beginning and keeps you hooked - Deverall's storytelling is exceptional.

The law office of Pomeroy, Macarthur, Brovak and Sage is a dysfunctional one at best. These young laywers are learning their lessons the hard way - by trying not to get killed! Someone is killing lawyers that are taking on "morally questionable" clients - and Deverall keeps you on the edge, guessing whodunit and who's the next victim.

Deverall's collection of characters is diverse. They range from Brian Pomeroy - a hardworking, intense lawyer, who's working hard to keep his extra marital affair a secret. Max Macarthur is the lawyer that's holding the firm together by sheer willpower, while John Brovak is a crass man whose life is on the fast track - fast cars, loose women and copious amounts of drugs and alcohol. Augustina Sage is a strong, determined woman of Metis descent whose need for a strong stable man leads her to the not-so-straight edged Judge Russell. The final addition to this interesting group of laywers is Wentworth Chance - a bright naive articling student.

Read it - you won't be disappointed!

Summary: Don't Kill All The Reviewers
Comment: I thought that Deverell did an excellent job of maintaining the reader's interest throughout the book, although his choice of method to reveal the killer was cliche and really quite unsupported. Deverell's style of letters from Pomeroy mixed with sections of story was quite well used. Generally good, a few weak points, including miscellaneous love interests, but a pleasant read.
