Product Description

From the Author

We are very excited about this book!
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE is a legal thriller about love, lightning, martinis, graverobbing, mountains, and murder. Nina Reilly, Lake Tahoe lawyer, is climbing Mt. Tallac with the man she thinks she loves when a terrifying event occurs, launching her into another murder case. Paul van Wagoner, Carmel private investigator, is looking into a hit-and-run case and finding a woman who has something new to teach him about the art of love. When an isolated cabin catches on fire, Nina makes a dangerous move which will come back to haunt her. What's wrong with the D.A., and why is her young client insisting he's innocent but acting guilty? Why do both Paul and Nina feel that even the gods have a stake in the outcome and are manipulating them? If the final chapters don't surprise you, we'll eat our hiking boots! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 stars My first Perri O'Shaughnessy's book was a disappointment., 23 Aug 1999
By A Customer
A fan of legal thrillers,I was disappointed with the unbelievable plot and lack of any character development. It was quick reading, but more to get through it as quickly as possible. After reading the other reviews, I might read her previous books, being as this is said to be her weakest, but only if nothing else is available.

5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it! I am a John Grisham fan and now one of yours., 27 July 1999
By A Customer
I live here at the So. shore of Lake Tahoe. I have lived here for 25 years. "Obstruction of Justice" was the first book that I read. When I read that there was a murder at the north end of the Raley's parking lot, where the trees are, I thought, that can't be true. My husband has worked at that store for 22 years and there are no trees at the north end of the parking lot. I had to drive down there at 12:30A.M. to check it out! There are trees. So many of the details are absolutely right on! Very exciting.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very, very dissapointing, 19 May 1999
By A Customer
I'm a big fan of legal thrillers, and currently attending law school. John Grisham is one of my favorite authors, but since I've exhausted all his written material, I thought I should try something else. I picked this one up from my mother-in-law, who mentioned she got through it in a couple of days, and it was a quick read. I was extremely disappointed. The plot was weak, and the writing style almost unbearable! I found myself editing the book constantly, and that took away from my enjoyment of the novel. I also got through it in a couple of days, hoping ferverently it would get better. It didn't. Too bad there is no rating lower than 1 star. That's what this book really deserves.
