WHEN THEY THROW THE BOOK AT YOU, WHO YOU GONNA CALL? ANSWER: You'd better call top Minneapolis criminal defense attorney Marc Kadella. Fixer Burt Chayson had well and truly fixed it this time. About to be charged in a vote-buying scandal, he was overheard declaring that if he went down, he'd take some people with him. Within hours he's dead, and, at first glance, it looks like a suicide -- until incriminating fingerprints are found. The suspect -- and Marc's client -- is realtor Hope Slade, one of a group of law-breaking former Vikings cheerleaders, now known as the Suburban Housewife Hooker Ring. Hope's had a little bad luck lately -- her husband threw her out, her children no longer trust her, and she's already facing a plethora of other criminal charges. All she needs is a murder rap. But not only are her fingerprints on the murder weapon but the victim, a client of several of the Housewife Hookers, was last seen with her. Relying on the SODDI (Some Other Dude Did It) defense that's worked so well for him before, Marc knows he'll have no trouble coming up with other suspects. But even if Hope's not convicted of the murder, she faces RICO, prostitution, and money laundering charges. And it's not just Hope. The Grand Jury's thrown the book at the entire hooker gang, apparently in an attempt to squeeze them for information on much bigger fish - a major local drug wholesaler. Themajor local drug wholesaler. And danger shadows them since some of those people the fixer had planned on taking down with him want to make sure the hookers don't spill Burt's pillow talk. Carstens has outdone himself, laying out an amazingly intricate narrative that leads to a supremely satisfying flashbang! resolution that nobody sees coming - not even Marc. A must-read for fans of taut legal thrillers like those of John Grisham, Richard North Patterson, Brad Thor, John Ellsworth, and Scott Pratt.

The Burning: Every house has a heart by Robert Derry 4.4 Stars (14 Reviews)    Price verified 40 minutes ago

To the Mountford family, it was their very own chocolate-box cottage, set deep in the folds of the English countryside. Their sumptuous second home, a nest egg for retirement, a secluded bolthole for times of trouble. In March 2020, as London fell silent under the threat of Covid19, Tony Mountford made the snap decision to see out lockdown in the close confines of their charming country retreat, unconcerned that one mischievous ghost would be waiting for them. But something had changed as fear gripped the nation, and the very bones of their much-loved timber-framed holiday home now creaked to the footfall of more sinister steps. A new tenant has taken up residence within its thick stone walls, drawn from a time when the innocent had paid the price for ignorance as a Royal edict fanned the flames of fear across the shires of England. Take care as you travel with them, for a chill wind is turning northward, and the embers are still burning.

Duplicitous Justice (A Marc Kadella Legal Mystery Book 14) by Dennis Carstens 4.5 Stars (695 Reviews)    Price verified one minute ago

THE PERFECT PATSY - A SWASTIKA TAT AND A PRISON RECORD - OF COURSE HE DID IT. Carstens' new high-octane legal thriller takes more twists and turns than a Monte Carlo Rally, right from the very public assassination of a black community leader through to the author's customary expert depiction of courtroom finesse. Top Minneapolis defense attorney Marc Kadella didn't so much "catch" this tricky loser of a case as it chased him down and tackled him. He could refuse to take it, but he'd be sleeping on the couch for the rest of his life. His client is the hapless son of a friend of a friend, a young man who landed an unlucky punch in a barroom fight and served a ten-year manslaughter sentence in Arkansas. Billy looked forward to a fresh start in Minneapolis under the watchful eye of his father's pal, Marc's investigator Tony Carvelli. But he soon learned he was expected to pay back the gang that protected him in prison by working for the local drug-running white supremacists. Oh - and a rogue FBI investigation team who are supposedly out to sever the drug pipeline would also appreciate his services as a mole. When a prominent black figure is assassinated, somebody makes sure it looks like the murder was perpetrated by the white supremacists - in particular, Billy. And somebody high up - way high up - wants the death penalty on the table. In other words - it's all but unwinnable. So it's all hands on deck, 24/7. Tony Carvelli, with his seemingly endless supply of contacts, will have to call in every favor he's owed. And, as always, Maddy Rivers, Marc's investigator and fiancée, will be called upon to teach a few guys a painful lesson in underestimating her. Stay tuned for great courtroom drama and a last-minute twist.

The Break (The Tory Fantasy Novels Book 2) by Sean Gabb (The Hampden Press) 4.7 Stars (10 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

This novel is a right-wing satirical fantasy set in the near future. Imagine: Our own modern England - a land of disarmed and moronised citizen-serfs, tyrannised over by a crumbling police state - has been lifted straight out of the present and dropped into the world of 1065. In mainland Great Britain and three hundred yards all about, it's business as usual. Or it's business as usual if you ignore the third of the population that has starved to death or been murdered by the authorities; and if you overlook endemic shortages, and trigger-happy police, and omnipresent propaganda. Oh, but this is the new business as usual - the business as usual arguably deserved by the sheeple who have survived. Outside this happy zone, it's 1065. Normans. Lords in their castles. The Catholic Church. Everyone is watching. Everyone is mindful of the vast new power dropped unaccountably where the land of King Edward had been. Though with weaker firepower, everyone is more intelligent and resourceful than the enfeebled slaves dropped into this new world. The story is told through the eyes of two main characters. There is Jennifer, a young English girl whose parents were running a smuggling racket into France before they were lifted. There is Michael, part of a Byzantine diplomatic mission sent over to spy out any help for their crumbling empire. They are brought together by apparently chance events. Together, they must stay alive while taking on an insanely villainous British Government. It's an odd sort of novel, no doubt. And it was written before Brexit or the Coronavirus panic or the Ukraine War. Even so, there are enough reviews underneath this blurb for you to decide for yourselves if this is the sort of novel you'll enjoy. All I can add is this comment from some swinish agent who refused to offer the book to one of the increasingly useless publishers: "I'll never pass through Oxford Circus again without a shudder." Praise for Other Novels by Sean Gabb (Writing as "Richard ...
