I loved this book! Steve is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. This is part of a series, but you can read it as a standalone. It is fun when familiar characters appear.

A father is dead, and the sisters are pointing fingers at each other, who do you believe? The courtroom scenes were exciting.

I couldn’t stop reading! I thought I had it all figured out, but I was totally wrong.

Can’t wait for the next one in this series.

Thanks to NetGalley and Atria Books for the advanced ecopy in exchange for my honest review.

Such a unique storytelling method. Truly a fifty fifty shot at guessing the killer!

This was a wild ride and one I couldn’t get enough of. The multiple POVs and look inside the killers view was astounding and Cavanaugh was masterful in keeping the reader guessing. 

I will be back for more Eddie Flynn!

Special thanks to the publisher & NetGalley for the ARC ahead of the paperback publication. 

This definitely kept me guessing until the end - a good argument could be made for either sister and while I was pretty sure I knew which one was guilty, there would be an argument for the other. Fast paced and probably one of the best court-room dramas I've read. There were a couple things I wanted an explanation for, but overall a pretty quick intriguing read!

I love a legal thriller, and Eddie Flynn is becoming one of my favorite attorney characters. If you’re a fan of Mickey Haller of Lincoln Lawyer fame, you’ll appreciate this series.

I started with Witness 8, which I raced through, and I believe, Fifty Fifty is one from the backlist that’s getting new life.

This one involves a murder where two sisters stand trial, each blaming the other for the crime. The pacing, storyline, and sometimes absurdity of the characters and/or plot make for a fun ride.

Now I need to go back to the beginning when Eddie’s character is first introduced and go from there.

Unfortunately, this is my least favorite book in the Eddie Flynn series so far.  Overall, I really struggled with the pacing.  I feel like with these books there is always a moment where you can see things start to unfold and know that you are now in for a really wild ride - whether that be for the last half of the book or the last 25 % of the book.  This book was missing that for me.  As always the author does the best job with the characters.  The more you read them the more you love them.  They are the most enjoyable part of the series.
While it is my least favorite - it is still a decent crime/legal thriller and I would recommend this book/series to anyone. 
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion. 

Fifty Fifty is 373 pages long and took me three days to read. I’m giving Fifty Fifty 4.5 out of 5 stars. Two sisters pointing fingers at each other for the murder of their father wouldn’t seem like much if it weren’t for the point of view of the guilty sister who is a serial killer. Wow, this book had so much action considering it was primarily a court room thriller.
