My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Murder wasn't the hard part. It was just the start of the game.

Joshua Kane has been preparing for this moment his whole life. He's done it before. But this is the big one.

This is the murder trial of the century. And Kane has killed to get the best seat in the house.

But there's someone on his tail. Someone who suspects that the killer isn't the man on trial.

Kane knows time is running out - he just needs to get to the conviction without being discovered.

This novel is the forth in the Eddie Flynn series and my first Eddie Flynn novel by this author. Luckily for me its not necessary to read these in order as this can be enjoyed as a stand alone book.

It was such a gripping and fast paced read with an unusual and intriguing idea that the killer is actually a juror on the trial where he has framed someone for the murder that he in fact has committed.

With a ruthless prosecutor, a Hollywood movie star who is accused and a brilliantly yet flawed defence lawyer this novel screams along at breakneck speed until it hurtles the reader to its conclusion. Brilliantly twisty with good characters this thriller is one of the best I've read.

Has to have five stars and highly recommended. I thoroughly enjoyed this gripping novel.
