Too many "red herrings"

I like Jane Casey's writing, but this one was over the top for believability. Too many red herrings and the heroine was needless reckless and sometimes downright stupid to be believable as a lawyer.

great story and great performance

it was so nice to listen to such a long audio book that kept my attention the whole time. I just wish the narrator would have lowered her voice for male voices because in some of the conversations it was hard to tell who was talking. but I still gave her four stars because the female voices were so good.

CON-VO-LU-TED

Hard to understand motivations and actions of main character (or lack there of). Al the characters are either obtuse or one dimensional. Narrator was alright once I put it on 1.5 speed.

wow! Not your usual Maeve Kerrigan!

I've been reading Jane Casey for about a year the year now, and Ive read all of her Maeve Kerrigan stories. This is not Maeve Kerrigan. However, it is is creative challenging and well planned, well paced thriller.. It's a good story with believable characters and plenty of suspense and surprises.
The main character is the more sophisticated character than Maeve, And I found that refreshing. She's an adult lawyer, and she she has all the challenges of a young adult professional in the world, except that she has a particular client who won't let her go....

One of her best

Great listen. I loved every minute. Love the narrator, wish she would do more, she was perfect. I wish I could start all over again!
