Siegel, Sheldon - SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES

[LJ Roberts]

SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES – VG

Siegel, Sheldon – 1st book

When Mike Daley gets fired from a prestigious San Francisco law firm, he starts a private practice. His first case is huge--to defend his best friend and former colleague, who's accused of killing two people at his old firm. Working to prove his friend's innocence, Daley uncovers the dirty secrets of his former partners and begins to question the legal system itself.

The first quarter of the book introduces the well-defined and interesting characters; the rest is a compelling courtroom drama. I’m not normally a big legal/courtroom drama fan, but I really enjoyed this book. The character of Mick Daley was well drawn, the plot compelling and an excellent twist at the end. I am definitely adding him to my “must read” list.
