review 1: This book is about Jac McElroy an starting criminal lawyer and Larry Darrant who is a prisoner it Liberville. Larry wants to die after being in jail for so long but keeps finding himself saving Roddy from another inmate. Larry feels like he has nothing to live for with the fact that he cannot keep in contact with his son who is only eleven due to his wife's fiance. Larry is in prison for the murder of a female that he cannot recall if he really killed or not. Jac is trying hard to keep Larry from wanting to die and is in the process of finding away around all of this and is working on it. The bad thing is there are guys that don't want Larry out so they can get away with the murder of this young woman. Can Jac help Larry or will Jac find himself in more trouble then ... morehe ever though.
review 2: At 57% the main character is in a perilous situation and the Kindle edition is finished. The last 43% is a preview of two other of this author's books. I'm not sure if this was made clear in the description or not, so I'm not taking it out on the author, publisher or Amazon. It could easily have been my own fault for not reading the description carefully enough. That said, I'm just not compelled to pay for the second half of this book. It was okay and I would have finished it had it been a complete novel. But there were a lot of characters and side stories that were pretty hard to keep straight while reading on the treadmill (again, no blame to anyone but myself). Perhaps I'll check out the second half during Spring Break or the summer, just not right now. less
