I really enjoyed this thriller about a murder case in Toronto, which was an interesting twist on the usual legal thriller format in that it wasn't just from the point of view of the attorneys, but rather included the police and detectives as they pieced the case together. The many characters were interesting and varied, though not all as fully-developed as I would have liked (though not really possible due to the number). The plot was good and built to a suspenseful climax. The descriptions of Toronto really made me want to go back to visit soon. There were a few loose ends laying the way for a sequel, perhaps. If so, I'll be sure to read it. I highly recommend this book for any fans of legal thrillers, especially those wanting something a little different.
