Product Description
Product Description
Suffering from courtroom burnout, attorney Ben Kincaid heads to the picturesque Pacific Northwest for some much-needed R and R. But Ben's blissful getaway becomes a busman's holiday in the small town of Magic Valley, where a pitched battle between the local logging industry and crusading conservationists has led to brutal murder.
Years earlier, professional activist George Zakin was successfully defended against a charge of murder by a fledgling attorney named Ben Kincaid. Now, accused of viciously killing a lumberjack, Zakin is counting on Ben to duplicate that long-ago courtroom coup. With the odds stacked against him, Ben walks into a war zone in the courtroom . . . and a potential killing field in Magic Valley, an explosive place where allies and enemies are hard to tell apart--and digging for the truth is as good as digging your grave.

Format:Hardcover
"Dark Justice", the 8th installment in the Ben Kincaid series, proves to be possibly the best offering from William Bernhardt.
I've always felt that Will Bernhardt is probably one of the most underrated authors in the legal genre.
Nonetheless, his latest book is a thoroughly entertaining read. I've followed his work since the first "Primary Justice" several years back, and I've watched progressively how each book is better than the previous one.
"Dark Justice" is a very timeless book; it presents a very controversial topic that is heavily debated today. I was also surprised to know that all of the events in the book (most of which have been spoiled to you by the reviews above) have all occurred in the last 15 years.
Bernhardt's exhaustive research and true mastery of the genre proves an asset.
Format:Hardcover
For the first 400 pages, I thought this is one of the best "legal-thrillers" that I have read. The author digs the protagonist in deeper and deeper. Yes, the judge is one-sided, but there are such judges. But the ending is somewhat disappointing--it takes too easy a way out. Still it is well worth reading.
Format:Hardcover
We have lived in a small northern mn town for nine years where the primary employer is the lumber co. The fine line an author who tries to present both the logging interests views and that of the envitonmentalists is a touchy subject at best. Also woven with an excellent mystery story of characters that one can identify with, made this a book, I found hard to put down until I was through. I eagerly await his next.

This book is a major misstep by Bernhardt.
Normally, I like the Ben Kincaid series by Bernhardt because of its dry wit and because Ben uses his brains more than his brawn. Read more
