 ... the first that I have read by him. I must say that there are indeed very striking similarities between the two authors, to the point where had I been given this book and told it was by Grisham, I would never have questioned it. However in my opinion Gimenez also shares his more esteemed compatriot's ability to make his novels unputdownable. I certainly enjoyed this one very much, although with a slight sense of guilty pleasure in that you almost feel like you are reading the equivalent of a low brow US crime series. ...more

The Colour Of Law - Mark Gimenez: A very good read (390 words)

I stumbled across the name Mark Gimenez when in a branch of a well-known chain of bookstores who offer reading suggestions along the lines of 'If you like ................, you'll love............'. Gimenez was compared to John Grisham, an author who over the years has seemingly effortlessly turned out unputdownable legal thrillers, albeit with the odd hiccough along the way. It was his latest thriller that was advertised, but although I was immediately drawn to it, I decided eventually to go back to the start of his career in case of recurring characters, and so this debut novel is the first that I have read by him. I must say that there are indeed very ...  Read the complete review

- Introduction - As I mentioned in a previous book review a few weeks ago, I've been lucky enough to be able to choose from quite a large number of fiction novels we no longer wanted to offer or store as part of our fiction library, at the college library I work at. Anyway, this is the first novel that caught my eye, with a bright green and silver cover, it looked like a slick and modern book and on the back cover its classified as a thriller, which is my favourite type of novel, so I decided to give it a go and thus I took it home with me along with some others this month. I have also read a book by James Patterson and one by James Siegel but to be honest, I ...  Read the complete review

Rating:

If you like legal books in the early John Grisham mould then you will love this debut novel. I was immediately hooked from reading the prologue and read the whole book in one sitting. The story is about a selfish, greedy, Dallas hotshot corporate lawyer in a Dallas law firm (A. Scott Fenney). At 33, he has everything, earns $750k per year, drives a Ferrari and comes home nightly to a mansion in one of Dallas's more exclusive neighbourhoods. Life could not be better as long as the money rolls in and he doesn't have to do any proper legal stuff or believe in justice. He will step on anyone to get more until one day he is forced to take a ...  Read the complete review
