Everybody knows what a big fan of Robert Dugoni I am. I have read many of his books and have thoroughly enjoyed every one. The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell is one of my favorite books all-time!
When I received an ARC of Beyond Reasonable Doubt from his publicist, I was extremely happy! But then I noticed that it was Book 2 of a new series, and I hadn’t read (or even been aware of) Book 1. So I asked Megan about it, and she was kind enough to send me a copy of Her Deadly Game. I devoured it!
So what is it about, you ask? Keera Duggan is a prosecutor on the rise in Seattle. Unfortunately, though, she has a bad break-up with a colleague which leads her to going from prosecution to criminal defense. In fact, she ends up working for the family business, which was founded by her father and also includes her two sisters. And, as luck would have it, she immediately takes on a case in which an investment advisor is accused of murdering his wealthy wife.
Let me say that I’ve always liked books where much of it takes place in the courtroom (does everybody know Sheldon Siegel? - if not, get to it!). This is definitely no exception. Bob has created a powerful story about a criminal defense family with some great courtroom drama. And on top of all that, is it possible the defendant has secrets that Keera uncovers and doesn’t know what to do with? I would say that, yes, it’s possible!
I didn’t need proof that I would enjoy Bob Dugoni’s latest. But the proof was definitely in the Her Deadly Game pudding. Don’t hesitate to grab a copy so you can follow right up with Book 2, which hits the bookstores on October 22.
