It's a first novel about a young man accused of killing the entire family of a woman he's been obsessed with for most of his life. Once the police had decided that Kirk Carver didn't really commit suicide after shooting his wife and children...they pick up Tony McMahon without asking more than a cursory question or two since they're entirely convinced...from a massively indiscreet letter he wrote about Patricia Carver...that he's the killer. Now enters the lawyers...a literal swarm of them. Tony...the suspected killer is now convicted by society as well as the police... is friendless... broke...and very naive...choosing as his defender Ralph Barolo, a flamboyant and streetwise lawyer who regards pleading before a jury as a wily game of sexual seduction. As the disturbing pathology of Tony's obsession is subtly revealed, the suspense builds regarding his guilt or innocence. The story was as much a study in abnormal psychology as a telling look at social discrimination in the criminal justice system. The main problem I had with the book was the writing style of the author. It was difficult to read as it read mostly like a legal textbook. This was what could have been a fascinating story but was left begging for it's life for a professional ghost writer. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
