'Burke is a born storyteller and has created an attractive heroine whom I look forward to meeting again.'
Review
Debut novel by daughter of the great James Lee Burke and one that he can proudly applaud. Quite unlike JLB's own work, but exciting, individual and unreservedly excellent. ... An absorbing, enjoyable first outing. Safe to assume they'll be many more.' (Philip Oakes

SUNDAY TELEGRAPH )
'A legal thriller with a twist that is stuffed with authentic detail.' (
YORK EVENING PRESS )
'Burke's entry into the world of crime fiction was nver going to be easy. The daughter of possibly the genre's greatest exponant - James Lee Burke - the dagers were bound to be drawn from the start. But to her credit, the former Assistant DA manages to hold her own. Judgment Calls is a smart and savvy legal thriller. ... A chip off the old block.' (
IRISH EXAMINER )
'Burke...handles the various threads of the story with aplomb, her characters are believable, her plotting is right on the buton, and in Kincaid she has created a sympathetic protagonist that I'm sure we'll hear about again.' (
