New York Times Bestseller

“A fast-moving and suspenseful thriller, cheerful, charming...funny and a good read.”—Los Angeles Times

In the seventh blockbuster legal thriller in #1 bestselling author Lisa Scottoline’s Rosato & Associates series, a beautiful young lawyer is believed to have been murdered, but she’s very much alive and is now on the run for her life as she searches for the killer.

Anne Murphy is the redheaded rookie at the Philadelphia law firm of Rosato & Associates, and one morning she wakes up to front-page headlines proclaiming LAWYER MURDERED—above her own picture.

To find the killer, Anne’s got to play dead—if she wants to stay alive. Though she tries to go it alone, she quickly realizes she’ll have to trust people she barely knows—colleagues who hate her, a homicide squad that wants her out of the crime-fighting business, and a new love who inconveniently happens to be opposing counsel.

But her knack for courting trouble, makes it almost impossible for Anne to play well with others, and an unexpected event places her in legal jeopardy and leaves her with everything to lose—including her life.

This is one of the best books I have listened to or read in a long time. You think you are finished and than there is more and again you think it has ended and there is still more. One of the books that when you listen in your car and get to your destination you stay in the car and keep listening.

Good story and well read. It kept me going through my commute time and a couple of times I ended up siting in the parking lot for an extra 5 minutes to get to the next scene. Very engaging.

Another great book by Lisa Scottoline. The narrator is not my favourite though...

I found this book to be pretty good, interesting and kept my interest for the most part. However, as the book went on, I grew increasingly displeased with the tone and voice of the narrator. I found her to be monotone and but plain boring. However, I do think she did a good job with the philly accents. I felt she was taking some lines and emphasizing them incorrectly or just saying them so quickly as if the multiple sentences were all one sentence and thereby, losing the point or drama the author had written. While I enjoyed the book up until the last half when it was supposed to get exciting, I found myself wanting to be done with the book just so I could stop having to listen to the narrator. I would hesitate before selecting another book including this narrator. She just wasn't my style.

Another Scottoline winner......good plot, evolving into a understandable interesting story.....the "villain" is a surprise....typical of Lisa Scottoline's talent......Narration a plus......

I always enojoy Scottoline. I think I would have enjoyed this one more in the unabridged verson. It is still a very good listen and worth your time.

This book provided more insight into the characters (and I do mean characters) at Rosato & Associates. I just love this group of people and the people that orbit them. However... enough with the shoes already! Does this woman have a fetish or what? In every book we get to find out who done it, but we also end up knowing who wears what designer's shoes, or what type of shoes, or how someone looks in shoes, or how someone feels in or out of shoes. Sheesh! Yeah, I'll keep reading LS's books regardless. They're too much fun not to.

Fast, furious, light-hearted fun with moments of danger. This is another good one from Scottoline. The author does a good job of showing us the world inside a female law firm, mistaken identity, high-stakes corporate lawsuits, and marital strife. There's never a dull moment at the firm of Rossato & Associates.

I was pleasantly surprised by the ending. The author does not give you one clue as to who really did it. In the beginning I thought this was like any other book. I was sure I knew how it was going to end. Boy gets girl and bad guy goes to jail. I would recommend anyone who likes a good love story with a little mystery to rent this CD.

Really a good story with the attitude of 'what's next?'...keeps you guessing. Lots of story and action in this one.

I enjoyed the story and while the narrator and actress, Kate Burton (whom I enjoy and have seen on t.v. many times) speaks beautifully and her words and pronounciation are crystal clear, her tone was often monotone, falling into a specific cadence which became boring and distracting. However, the story kept me interested, was well written and had an unexpected, surprise twist. I would highly recommend this book.

I really enjoyed this book. I liked many of the characters but especially Anne Murphy. Lots of twists and turns kept me listening and Anne and her law firm buddies kept me laughing. This book made my comute to and from work very enjoyable.

This is the kind of book you'd want to curl up with. I was sorry the CD I was listening to was abridged because I didn't want to miss any of it.
