Lisa Scottoline is back with another highly entertaining, stand-alone thriller that has a catchy title, and a snarky, likable lead character who you cant help but root for!
TJ Devlin is the only child who is not a lawyer at Devlin and Devlin, the highly successful family law firm which employs not only both parents but also both of his siblings.
Instead he holds the title of Investigator given to him by his family after time in jail for an alcohol related crime.
His sister Gabby is whip smart, but prefers her pro bono work- making his older brother John the family MVD (most valuable Devlin)
So TJ is pretty shocked when at their fathers birthday party, John confesses that he needs TJs help. It appears that he accidentally killed one of their clients, an accountant hed confronted with proof of embezzlement.
TJ may have to OBSTRUCT justice to save John, but he wants to make amends with his family and prove his worth. At the same time, Gabby needs TJs help to GET justice for her dying plaintiffs-prisoners who were experimented on by a large pharmaceutical company,
This would be a lot for anyone but TJ will have to balance both cases while also dealing with his own personal demons-AA meetings-the loss of love-and a newly adopted, diabetic cat named Mango, who tolerates him at best.
Dont let the 400 pages scare you away! The chapters are short and this is compulsive just one more chapter reading! I was engaged from the first page through the last.
And, this story COULD be the prequel for the next chapter in TJs life
