1.30.2017 - Blood Defense

Blood Defense by Marcia Clark

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This is the first in a new series by Marcia Clark, infamous as the prosecutor in the OJ Simpson trial. The main character in this book is Samantha Brinkman, a defense attorney, struggling to build up a small practice in LA.

A police detective is accused of a high-profile killing of an actress, whom he was dating, and her roommate. This is just the kind of case that Samantha and her associates hope will help build their clientele and get them out of the drug-infested neighborhood. Michelle is her childhood best friend and is her right-hand in the office. A new investigator, Alex, comes to the office with a dubious background.

I really liked this book - it moved quickly, I liked the characters and Samantha's dry wit, and things kept me guessing til the end. I'm excited to move on to Book #2 in this series!
