Welcome back to Kindle County, where skies are generally gray, the truth is seldom simple, and the partners of a top-drawer corporate law firm are counting on one world-weary attorney to save them from front-page scandal and financial ruin.

When Gage & Griswell's star litigator suddenly disappears - along with $5.6 million of its most important client's money - the assignment of locating both goes to Mack Malloy, a 50ish ex-cop, almost ex-drunk, and partner-on-the-wane at G&G. Mack's search takes him into the treacherous inner sanctum of his firm and through the shadowy heart of the city itself, on a path that soon runs him up against his longtime nemesis - the odious Pigeyes - as he plucks the threads of a dangerous web of corruption, deceit, and murder.

An edge-of-the-chair journey into an ominous and enthralling world, Pleading Guilty is at once a brilliantly constructed puzzle, a relentlessly entertaining character study, and as suspenseful a story as any listener could want - a masterpiece of midwestern menace that could come only from Scott Turow.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Though every element of the novel is polished and professional, the charisma of Mack's narration is its triumph. Add that to a taut, twist-filled plot, expert pacing, colorful and well-rendered supporting characters, and an appealing whiff of larceny, and Turow surpasses Grisham hands down."

This book, "Pleading Guilty" was a good, solid story. I did have a hard time knowing who was which character in the story. It was very slow, an example is at one point I fell asleep while listening and had to go back to where I fell asleep. The last quarter of the book was the best part of the book.

The performance was very good. I will check out the author and see what else he has performed..

So all in all this is a good book that you could do other things while listening to this book. Typically I enjoy books where you have to think and not do a bunch of other things while listening/

Not the best I have read but better than the last

However, this is the type of book that, when I am reading in paper or digital form, I tend to make notes to help keep track of the characters. Pleading Guilty is not as overwhelming as some but the lawyers in the practice start to blend after a few chapters. The story isn't half bad but most certainly it is not even an eensty teentsy bit uplifting.

The narrator does a decent job...

Classic Scott Turow he captures your attention until the very end. He writes so well. I listened to this on Audiobook and it just enhances the experience. Make sure to read his books in order as it will make the experience much better.

Gritty view of a legal firm. An alcoholic lawyer turned investigator is assigned to find a lawyer missing from his firm along with seven million dollars. He sorts out out and finds the money in a Caribbean bank in a country like the Camen islands.

It doesn’t have the suspense and thrill of your normal mystery but great subject and lots of very interesting history! It is more on the emotional side side.

Decent listen but nice and long.

I'm a Turow fan. He's a superb storyteller and writes knowledgeably about the law and lawyers. I feel like I personally know most of his characters. But I would do my best not to know the central figure in this book (I just finished it and I can't even remember his name). This is a fine story, well told. The narration is very good. But I could not stand the protagonist. I had to listen to hours (no exaggeration) of this guy whining about what a loser he is in all areas of his life. In real life, a guy like this would send me running inside 20 minutes. Excuse me, I have some important sleeping to do. If he were actually a colleague of mine, I would hide every time I saw him coming at me in the hallway.

No, I didn't miss with the mouse

This is my third Turow book after Presumed Innocent and Innocent.

Upon finishing this book, it occurred to me that all of Turow's books that I've read up to this point feature a middle aged white guy lawyer who either creates a scandal or is called on to investigate suspicious activity. The narrator then spends over half the book ruminating over a failed marriage or troubled
upbringing.

These obsessive thoughts don't prevent our main character from having sexual encounters. Of which there are many, since women are drawn to a mysterious guy with a traumatic past.

The plot moves along sluggishly with occasional hints as to who did what, but none of the information feels irrefutable. Turow's characters always act like the don't know--or care--about plot points until the final chapters of a story. Then the main character suddenly becomes competent and connects a ton of evidence that up to that point felt circumstantial at best.

The overriding feeling one is left with after reading the Turow books I mentioned l above, as well as Pleading Guilty, is that no characters face lasting consequences for their behavior.

Robert Petkoff is a great narrator and he's best playing sarcastic jerks. As other reviewers have said, Malloy is not a likeable character, so the narration makes up somewhat for the book's failings.

Guilty of the Turow Formula

I read this novel years ago, and didn't remember liking it that much. But I enjoyed it immensely with this re-reading. The characters are complex and the plot has plenty of twists and turns. The ending is a bit weak, although it would work extremely well in a film version. But that's just a little bit wrong with a great novel. The narrator is top-notch.

Great novel

Part of the Kindle County series, Pleading Guilty has some characters and events from books earlier in the series but it stands fine on its own. The protagonist is seeing his mariage, parenting, substance abuse recovery and legal career fall apart in mid life. His assignment to find a missing partner and the $5 million that went missing at the same time gives Turow the opportunity to explore the souls and lives of big city lawyers, cops, thugs and fixers through the eyes of this protagonist whom the reader ends up liking better than he can ever manage to like himself.
