Historia
Mary DiNunzio has been slaving away for the past eight years trying to make partner in her cutthroat Philadelphia law firm. She's too busy to worry about the crank phone calls she's been getting - until they fall into a sinister pattern. The phone rings as soon as she gets to work, then as soon as she gets home. Mary can't shake the sensation that someone is watching her, following her every move. The shadowboxing turns deadly when her worst fears are realized, and she has to fight for something a lot more important than partnership: her life.

Historia
Bennie Rosato, Mary DiNunzio, Judy Carrier, and Anne Murphy are back with all cylinders firing in Accused. Mary Dinuzio has just been promoted to partner and is about to take on her most unusual case yet, brought to the firm by a thirteen-year-old genius with a penchant for beekeeping. Allegra Gardner's sister Fiona was murdered six years ago, and it seemed like an open-and-shut case: the accused, Lonnie Stall, was seen fleeing the scene; his blood was on Fiona and her blood was on him; most damningly, Lonnie Stall pleaded guilty.

When reporter Ellen Gleeson gets a "Have You Seen This Child?" flyer in the mail, she almost throws it away. But something about it makes her look again, and her heart stops—the child in the photo is identical to her adopted son, Will. Her every instinct tells her to deny the similarity between the boys, because she knows her adoption was lawful. But she's a journalist and won't be able to stop thinking about the photo until she figures out the truth. And she can't shake the question: if Will rightfully belongs to someone else, should she keep him or give him up?

Historia
Somewhere in the once-placid streets of San Francisco, a young man is on the run, charged by the media with a crime he didn't commit, hounded by demagogues, hunted by a desperate police department. One cop knows that Kevin Shea is innocent of a brutal racial murder. An ambitious politician will use Shea for her own ends. And a down-and-out lawyer is all that stands between Kevin Shea and an even more atrocious crime. For when there's no law left, justice is the only hope.

Enter: hotshot prosecutor Erika Lorman, she of the stellar record and unfailing touch with juries, a veritable legend in her own right.

But something about it makes her look again, and her heart stops—the child in the photo is identical to her adopted son, Will. Her every instinct tells her to deny the similarity between the boys, because she knows her adoption was lawful. But she's a journalist and won't be able to stop thinking about the photo until she figures out the truth. And she can't shake the question: if Will rightfully belongs to someone else, should she keep him or give him up?

Masterful
Rosenblat's naration is first-rate. Giving each character a voice of their own, and lending an appropriate tone to the dialogue. This was truly a joy to listen to.
A book that will make you think about murder and killing in a whole new light. One that will make you ask yourself the questions, does killing someone always equal murder? Does killing by one's own hand mean justice is done?
Scottoline's flipping back from the past to the present will have you on the edge of your seat and eager for the next plot twist... Before long, you'll be hanging on her every word.

A Glimpse into a Tightly Knit Italian Community
The protagonist, an Italian immigrant who loves pigeons, is one of the most sympathetic characters ever defended. Judy Carrier takes the case pro bono) and has a VERY difficult time trying to defend this small and seemingly simple man for murder who keeps blurting out his crime! What is the law compared to justice? (Never a clear line.) This is a great look into above noted community where the MANY "Tonys" (known by their nicknames) and how they stick together to help a neighbor. Judy Carrier has the same many comic thoughts of any Scottoline character that keep you smiling until you breathlessly await the verdict of the obviously guilty "Pigeon Tony."

Still my favorite Lisa Scottoline fiction story
Where does The Vendetta Defense rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Still in my top 10, & I devour a lot of books.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Yes. See full review below, please.
Have you listened to any of Barbara Rosenblat’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Excellent as always.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Definitely & repeatedly.
Any additional comments?
This is the first Lisa Scottoline book I ever read, & it still holds up against all of her other outstanding works. After hearing her share the real life memory from her youth that triggered it last night in Cleveland, it somehow resonates even more.
The plot and characters are compelling. The three Tony's often steal the show in endearing & fantastic ways. Her insights into how we think and why we react to circumstances both of our own design & those outside our control are spot on. Lisa has a way of bringing humor to tense situations that is entirely natural & can evoke laughter and tears, sometimes simultaneously. Her craftsmanship of the back stories, particularly Pigeon Tony's, are at once simple & complex & completely relatable. Her command of language is, frankly, quite beautiful.
If you are unfamiliar with any of the characters in this series, or for that matter with Ms. Scottoline's work in general, this is a very nice place to start. I dare you not to fall in love with her characters, of which South Philly is one. If you have previously read her work, & have not yet read The Vendetta Defense, you, my friend, are missing a true gem, & owe it to yourself to rectify this oversight.
As an aside: Thank you Francesca for evoking such love in your mother that she left her former life as an attorney, stayed home with her beloved daughter & perused the craft of writing in order to stay home with you 30+ years ago. Without you we would not have such wonderful friends as these.
