My Thoughts…
Oh My… what a
suspense thriller. Hank Phillippi Ryan
has an amazing talent to take her readers on a twisted, turned upside down path
that will surprise, shock, and pulled the reader in from the very beginning of
the book until the very last page.
Rachel North is a law student, married to defense lawyer
Jack Kirkland. Rachel gets a summer
internship with Martha Gardinier, who has a hate-hate relationship with
Jack. That in itself should be enough
for a great story but then add in the reason that Rachel is working with Martha
and it gets so much more interesting.
The Murder List could be considered a legal thriller but a
lot of the story happens outside the courtroom. It is more the story of three characters,
who all could be considered a little shady, who work within the scopes of the
law and how they revolve around each other and the system that they took an
oath to uphold.
