Author: Linda Fairstein

Another msytery for that female lawyer who's part of the Special Victims unit in New York. Fairstein herself, another of those lawyers turned writer, actually began the real Special Victims Unit in New York, so she knos what she's talking about in that area. Only thing that drives me crazy is the continual references to the TV program "Jeopardy" in all her books (I never watch it), and dropping names of real restaurants, complete with names of owners, etc. (all in my neighborhood and, yeah, they're not my favorite spots to eat either). But otherwise, she usually has high interest level.

This book was good, but it left me wanting more. You really felt like you were reading a week in the life of a NYC DA

If you like Patricia Cornwell mysteries, you will enjoy this.

Fascinating historical backdrop kept my interest. Learn the creepy history of NYC's Roosevelt, formerly Welfare, formerly Blackwell's Island.
Book could have used a sterner editor as it's at least 50 pages longer than it should be. Fairstein's efforts to educate us all about the prevalence of sex crimes are heavy handed and often detract and distract from the otherwise compelling writing.
