Overall a good read...there is so much maliciousness that it is hard to keep reading, but in the end it all pays off.
Excellent book. The story really kept moving and kept my interest. Couldn't put it down and wanted to keep reading it to see what was going to happen. Put this on your list of books to read.
Gtta love Nina Reilly for a gutsy broad and a lawyer to boot. good read
Part of the Nina Reilly series. In this courtroom thriller Nina defends her own career. The plot is thick in this one- twist & turns abound. Great book!
Very good book if you are into legal mysteries.
Eighth installment in the Nina Reilly series. Very good mystery series set in Lake Tahoe.
The best of the Nina Reilly series in my opinion. Nina's career and life are on the line.
Nina Reilly never fails to hold my interest. In this book she's fighting for her career.
always fun to read
These Nina Reilly novels keep getting better and better -- very true-to-life legal thrillers!
This is the first Perri O'Saughnessy book I've read and really enjoyed it. It's a little unnerving to think that private information can be stolen and that it could put your life in danger.
Really good reading :)
Good read many sub plots
Woman attorney faces professional and financial ruin due to one careless mistake. Great courtroom drama, complicated personal life and plenty of action make for a great read.

Nina Reilly is a compelling character, and the legal mysteries she finds herself involved in are always exciting.
As an ex-lawyer, contemplating such a theft made me queasy!
It's the moment every attorney fears most...one careless moment that threatens careers, reputations, lives. For Nina Reilly, it will change everythingâand ignite a case where her own clients are witnesses against her...and where the defendant is Nina herself.
As an attorney championing desperate people, Nina Reilly has skirted the edges of legal ethics in pursuit of a just result, but she has never before broken the rule of absolute protection of her clients' secrets. One September night in Lake Tahoe when her unlocked truck is stolen, her life changes forever. Gone are her most sensitive case files, complete with the sometimes brutally candid notes she took while interviewing her clients.
It's every attorney's nightmare. And now the worst has happened: The secrets are being revealed, one by one, in ways that will cause the greatest harm. Nina's own clients complain to the State Bar of California, and suddenly Nina is fighting for her license and her livelihood in a legal proceeding that may ultimately lead her to disbarment. In desperation, Nina turns to her ex-husband, celebrated San Francisco lawyer Jack McIntyre, to represent her.
And as personal tensions erupt between McIntyre and Nina's sometime boyfriend, private investigator Paul van Wagoner...as reputations are ruined and people begin to die...a chilling pattern of rage and revenge comes into focus. Someone is bent on destroying the lives of Nina's clients and, in the process, Nina Reilly.
