A good and enjoyable story well told

A good and enjoyable story well told, that really says it all. If you liked the first book you'll like this one. If you haven't read or listened to the first one I recommend you do so. The second book doesn't require the first but does reveal some details that would diminish enjoying the first story.

Great mystery with surprise ending

it was an easy to read. great mystery with a surprise ending. recommend to readers

The Wrong Side

captivating story line , well presented, with excellent character development, each chapter ending with the need to continue reading / listening. the presenter of the Audio book also made for great listening.

Another great Robert Bailey production

For fans of the professor series as well as the current Bose it is Haines series, this is another in
we could get more than one per year.

Really enjoyed this book!

The first one in this series didn't do much for me but I'm glad I listened to the second one.

The Wrong Side -- Robert Bailey at His Best!

Robert Bailey is simply a great storyteller! I will proudly boast I have read all SIX Bailey legal thrillers. The stories are so well-crafted and told expertly by Eric G. Dove. The Wrong Side had talking to myself, and to Bo. A few spots had me getting emotional and at others, a few chuckles.
Although I highly recommend this outstanding book, I would be remiss if I didn't urge you to start with The Professor (McMurray and Drake Legal Thrillers Book 1), in order to better appreciate Robert Bailey!

Stellar Legal Thriller!!

Based on the Bocephus Haynes Series, I would picture Robert Bailey to be an African American author. And I do not mean anything by this, just that the stories in this series are so steeped in Southern Tradition with a mix of African American heritage that I thought for sure the author would also be African American. I am pleasantly surprised to find out that he is not! I think I now appreciate what he's doing with these books that much more!

When I read the first book in this series, Legacy of Lies, I immediately fell in love and couldn't wait for the next book to come out! After reading The Wrong Side I can honestly say that I am just as excited to read book #3!! I really didn't realize that this series is a play off of another series, but now I can't wait to go check them all out because I think that Robert Bailey is a super talented writer (unlike myself using words such as super talented writer...HA!!).

Bocephus "Bo" Haynes is such a strong character that you can't help but love him and root for him. He seems to always be willing to help the underdog, which is one of the things I like most about him. He takes on the cases and the clients that no one else would ever dream of touching...even ones he swore he would have nothing to do with ever again! He is a man of integrity and just a solid, enjoyable character to read about.

The Wrong Side is the perfect title for this story because at times I'm sure Bo feels like he either may or may not be on the wrong side. This one is so hard to tell. I really appreciate legal thrillers and would probably find them to be my favorite genre so I thoroughly enjoy stories like this! If you like legal thrillers, then this book should be right down your alley.

The story was somewhat predictable, but that didn't take away from the story at all! I still found it engaging and enjoyable. Bo's love for his town, his people, and what he does seeps through the pages of the story!

Although this is Book #2 of this series, it could easily be read as a standalone because there's enough backstory to get you through without confusing you too much. Bailey was really good about throwing tidbits of information from the first book to keep you up to speed. Which as an avid reader that reads anywhere from 100 to 150 books a year, I really appreciate that because I don't always remember right away what happened in the previous story! It's not enough to be redundant, but enough to refresh your memory, or not make you feel lost if you're jumping into book 2 first.

This title is narrated by Eric G. Dove and I feel like he is the PERFECT fit for this story! Stell performance for sure!!

Overall this is a well-written story with perfect execution and solid characters! As I said before...I can't wait for the next book in this series!

I would like to offer a huge THANK YOU to Robert Bailey, Thomas & Mercer and Netgalley for providing me with a copy of The Wrong Side, which has allowed me to provide this honest and unbiased review.

Loved the story

Great story but I guessed the perpetrator long before the end. Still, the tale was told in an interesting and entertaining way and I like the characters.

Love these books

I really love this series about Bo, and hope there are more to come. I hope that Rick Drake will make another appearance too.

Pulls you in so you don’t want to stop listening

Great story line and loved the intrigue. You never know where it’s going to go or where the truths will come from. Loved the first book and this one as well. Can’t wait for the next one!
