A brilliant breathless read from start to finish

If you only read one crime thriller this year, maybe this should be the one. The pace, the tension - and the body count - don't let up for a second. There's just no time to catch your breath as each new victim falls prey to the killer.

And who is that killer? AA Chaudhuri plots "The Lawyer" so ingeniously that I couldn't imagine who it could be - still less their motive. Read it!
