3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the previous ones, 17 Mar 2004
By Sebastian Fernandez (Tampa, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Extreme Justice (Ben Kincaid) (Mass Market Paperback)
The previous books in the series were very good or excellent, but in this installment Bernhardt delivers an average book. It is still easy to read and entertaining, but there are some things missing. The most clear one is that there is no courtroom events in this "legal thriller". The other thing I didn't like was that the descriptions of the violence are too gory in some parts.
After deciding to leave his legal practice in the last book, Ben Kincaid starts playing the piano in a jazz group and is forced to go back to practice when a body drops on top of him during a performance. The the main suspect is Earl, who owns the place and has established a friendship with Ben, since the murdered victim is a former lover.

For those of you that follow the series there are a couple of interesting side stories going on with Jones, Christina and Mrs. Marmelstein.

Of course I will continue reading this series; at least the next book to see if the quality picks up again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Only for hardcore fans, 28 Aug 1999
By A Customer
Unless you have been reading faithfully Bernhardt's Justice-series books, this book is *not* worth your money.

Although I was very impressed with Naked Justice, this next book is a thorough disappointment. The plot is weak, and the story boring.

If not for my initial experience with Naked justice, I would never have even continued reading this book after the first chapter.

I'll give it a 2-star for at least a decent attempt at a twist in the story. But that's about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bernhardt is the best!, 3 July 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Extreme Justice (Ben Kincaid) (Mass Market Paperback)
Bernhardt grabs the reader and leads them into a whirlwind chase! I love the surprises, twists, and turns. He is the best legal novelist in America today!
