Commentary Conducive To Books Presumed Innocent (Kindle County Legal Thriller #1)

Hailed as the most suspenseful and compelling novel in decades. Presumed Innocent brings to life our worst nightmare: that of an ordinary citizen facing conviction for the most terrible of all crimes. It's the stunning portrayal of one man's all-too-human, all-consuming fatal attraction for a passionate woman who is not his wife, and the story of how his obsession puts everything he loves and values on trial--including his own life. It's a book that lays bare a shocking world of betrayal and murder, as well as the hidden depths of the human heart. And it will hold you and haunt you...long after you have reached its shattering conclusion.

Crit Containing Books Presumed Innocent (Kindle County Legal Thriller #1)

Well, here we go. Not a book I hate but a book that I couldn't get into. I would ordinarily go with 2 stars on a "I don't love and I don't hate it' book but for a couple of reasons I lift this one to 3. First the book did interest me at first and the author's writing is good. The 'voice" of the story telling character was at least at first interesting. Secondly there was a problem that might not effect other readers.Now what didn't I care for...what killed my interest? I think there were a

This is one of the best books that I have read recently. It is a great legal thriller cum murder mystery. No wonder the book finds mention in both the top 100 mystery/crime novel lists published by the Britain-based Crime Writers' Association and by the Mystery Writers of America. Both the lists were published in the nineties and feature some of the finest specimens of crime writing. The lists can be found here - LinkThe story is narrated by Rozat K. Sabich aka Rusty, chief deputy prosecutor of

What a mess. It was unnecessarily racist, and unjustifiably long. I opened this book expecting to be gripped, suprised, and excited. Instead, I was disppointed.It was a far too long blow-by-blow account of unimportant details. I guess who the killer was halfway through the book, and it somehow managed to further disappoint me, in the process of revealing the killer to me at the end.I'm not even sure whether or not I should go into the mess of a sub-plot. Becuase the killer is, suprise surpise,

I'm surprised I didn't like this. The reader was pretty good, but I just didn't like the way the author wrote. There was too much back story dumping irrelevant data that detracted from the main story. I might have stuck with it longer, except I didn't like the main character enough.

I met Scott Turow when he came to visit my college to promote "Presumed Innocent", which I thought was a great book at the time. I haven't read it in almost 20 years (Christ, has it been that long since I was in college?), but I remember some of the details in his writing that made him stand out from all the other best-selling thriller writers out there, most notably John Grisham. Both of them were inevitably compared to each other because of their courtroom settings and knowledge of the legal

Slow start and the dialogue was more about what they didn't say in the courtroom that what they did say and were implying.While I guessed who was the murderer way before that fact was revealed. I stil did enjoy the book.(spoiler alert) The wife elaborately planned and framed her husband but when she admitted to the murderer, she stated that she would have confessed to the brutal premediated murder before seeing her husband go to jail-I did not believe her for a minute-she woud have let her

Excellent, excellent, excellent. Even if it was saddled with a typical denouement. Still excellent.
