A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

You must read this book: it is wildly and complexly plotted, ebulliently witty and filled with riotous humor; it details the inner workings of the L.A. legal system with unprecedented accuracy and verve - and to top it off, it is a damn, damn, good thriller. (James Ellroy)

Marcia Clark's debut novel showcases her experience and knowledge of the legal system. The pace, plot and dialogue are as sharp as they come in the genre. (David Baldacci)

This introduction to LA special prosecutor Rachel Knight charms from the first line then surfs a tide of knockabout humour, sassy backchat and armour-piercing observation (Daily Telegraph)

Taut, compelling, and accomplished, with a gritty authenticity that comes from an insider's knowledge of the criminal justice system...A first rate legal thriller (Meg Gardiner)

Knight makes a compelling protagonist - rebellious, straight-forward, salty (Guardian)

An accomplished debut...Clark is a polished writer who knows her material (Sunday Telegraph Australia)

Her first legal thriller, about a tenacious Los Angeles DA, is on the money (Daily Mail)

A corker of a debut novel (Kirkus Review)

A triumphant fiction debut...Readers will want to see a lot more of Knight, who combines strength of character and compassion with all-too-human foibles. (Publishers Weekly)

Remarkably accomplished...A top-notch legal thriller that will leave readers wanting more. (Booklist)
