Product Description

Culture, Sunday Times
'An enthralling legal thriller.'

Product Description
Life would seem to have gone well for George Mason. His days as a criminal defence lawyer are long behind him. At fifty-nine, he has sat as a judge on the Court of Appeals in Kindle County for nearly a decade. Yet, when a disturbing rape case is brought before him, the judge begins to question the very nature of the law and his role within it. What is troubling George Mason so deeply? Is it his wife's recent diagnosis? Or the strange and threatening emails he has started to receive? And what is it about this horrific case of sexual assault, now on trial in his courtroom, that has led him to question his fitness to judge? In "Limitations", Scott Turow, the master of the legal thriller, returns to Kindle County with a page-turning entertainment that asks the biggest questions of all. Ingeniously, and with great economy of style, Turow probes the limitations not only of the law, but of human understanding itself.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Disappointing, 25 Aug 2008
By John Becker (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having read Scott Turow before I had high expectations of 'Limitations'. Unfortunately, the title illustrates well the novel. Limitations in plot, writing, interest and overall standard. Not what I expected from Scott. This book is best left with the printers.

1.0 out of 5 stars A most apt title, 16 Oct 2007
I have found Scott Turow to be one of the more impenetrable authors of legal thrillers. Despite this, I thought I would give 'Limitations' a try and I found it to be a thoroughly disappointing read. While many other books by former lawyers are genuine 'page turners', this one, rather like other Turow novels, seemed to ramble with no hint of tension, intrigue, twists or plot development. The characters are hard to engage with and somewhat bizarely, I was pleased to get to the end so that I could start another book - a sentiment that I rarely experience.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 26 Oct 2007
By Mrs. J. Lynch "tattyhead" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I too eagerly awaited "Limitations" by Scott Turow. What a complete let down. The book had no sense of flow and I got really annoyed with both George and Patrice who, for someone supposedly being diagnosed with cancer, was completely vacuous.
