4.0 out of 5 stars Scott Turow's Best Since One L!, 2 May 2002
By A Customer
After being more than mildly disappointed in Laws of Our Father and Personal Injuries, Scott Turow served up another deliciously dark and moral thriller which I thoroughly enjoyed. Mack Malloy, the main character is the loser that the reader loves and Mack can light up the book and dish out more surprises than ever before in a Scott Turow novel. Gage & Griswell, a law firm has just lost $5.6 million from the coffers of one of its' largest clients. And the blame is resting on G&G's own rookie partner, Bert Kamin, who, like the money, has disappeared. Mack, a fellow partner, ex-cop, and ex-drunk is tasked with finding Bert and the money; quickly, and more importantly quietly. However, the trail soon takes Mack to Latin America, a corpse, and back to his own and complex past. Ounce again, Scott Turow displays why he is ranked with the likes of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammet.

2.0 out of 5 stars Slow going, 29 Sep 2006
By Wendy Jones "wjones7423" (Southampton, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Having enjoyed many of Scott Turow's other books I bought this on a recent trip to America. I have to say I found it rather slow going and difficult to read. It was written in the style of a dictation and I found this difficult to deal with. I found the characters confusing and could not keep track of the plot. Having read it to the end I know who did it, but still not why or how we got to that stage. It is a shame because Turrow is actually a good author. If you are looking for one of his books tor ead try one of the others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Genre bender, 7 Jun 2004
This is more of a jeu d'esprit than Turow's other novels. It's probably the least serious but certainly not the least entertaining book he has written. I read somewhere that he wrote it as a way of taking a break from the more ambitious (and disappointing) The Laws of Our Fathers. In it, he plays skilfully and ingeniously with genre conventions, in particular that of the hard boiled, cynical investigator. That role is taken by Mack Malloy, a recovering alcoholic ex-cop, now an unregarded partner in a law firm that is frighteningly dependent on its main client, an airline. When a chunk of that client's money disappears, simultaneously with a quixotic, unstable partner in the firm, Mack is deputed to find them both before the discrepancy has to be reported to the client. Mack is smart as well as cynical. He sees through everybody's motives and works out how the money was stolen and where it is now. Then, his and the reader's expectations are flouted, as it starts to become clear that the other players' motives are rather less self-serving than, and certainly not as blameworthy as, Mack had imagined. Finally, he has to reassess his own part in the drama. There's one role that has, surprisingly, been left unfilled and Mack steps into the breach.
