Another Good Installment

This was another great book in the series. However, I think it is about time to close up to finish up the current storyline because new readers to the series will be totally lost. For those of us who have read all of the books its great. I was hooked from the middle of the book and couldn't put it down until I finished it.

GREAT Legal Thriller!

Until the Final Verdict is suspenseful, intense, very tightly written, and takes the reader on a unique twist in the search for justice. Christine McGuire, a successful prosecutor, writes legal-mystery thrillers like better-known wannabes only wish they could. Also, try the earlier novels in her UNTIL series.

Page-Turning Legal Thriller

A fine addition to this long-running series about District Attorney Kathryn Mackay. This time the tables are turned, and she is arrested as a murder suspect. Real life ADA McGuire presents a taut and chilling tale of an innocent person caught in the criminal justice system. Good summertime read. The other books in the series are well worth reading, too.
