Private Sector

De: Brian Haig

Narrado por: John Rubinstein, Michael Emerson

The bestselling author of Secret Sanction returns -- and this time, Army lawyer Sean Drummond is loaned out to a law firm whose #1 client may have ties to a vicious serial killer and a massive international crime ring.
Wherever Sean Drummond goes, it seems that the JAG officer leaves a trail of political fallout in his wake. So when his superiors get an opportunity to loan him to a prestigious law firm, they jump on it, hoping he'll soak up the nuances of civilian lawyering. But almost immediately, dark clouds appear when Sean's predecessor in the loan-out program is murdered. Then Sean begins to sense something amiss with the firm's biggest client, a telecom behemoth with large defense contracts. Now, he must survive in D.C.'s buttoned-down lawyer culture long enough to stop the killer, and long enough to discover why his firm and its top client are willing to kill anyone who gets in their way.© 2003 Brian Haig; (P) 2003 Time Warner AudioBooks

Brian Haig is among the best thriller writers!

Private Sector is novel #4 in the Sean Drummond military legal thriller series and it is the only one of the 7 novels not available in unabridged audio format, so I'm reviewing the abridged audio version. The genres are legal thriller and suspense thriller. Drummond is forced by his boss to take a year away from his JAG criminal job to work in an elite Washington DC law firm which specializes in civil matters including government lobbying. His initial passive-aggressive response is easily foreseen. But then a JAG lawyer he has worked with in the past and who has spend the prior year with the same firm is murdered followed by other women being murdered in the same way by an apparent serial killer. The plot is multi-tiered and complex, but author Brian Haig pulls it off brilliantly. Private Sector is a great suspense thriller. Narration is also great.
