When Madison lands an internship with her idol, Judge Conroy, she thinks this could be the springboard for her future. But when she realizes her brother is currently being wrongfully-charged in a big drug case under Conroy’s court, Madison must uncover how far the corruption goes to save her brother and herself.

THE INTERN by Michele Campbell was definitely a fast-paced cat and mouse thriller!

I found myself, like Madison, also captivated by Judge Conroy and her backstory - her POV and storyline were my favorite when it came down to the storytelling in this book!

However, Madison, a second-year Harvard law student (top of her class mind) is so incredibly naive and seems to have an unwavering belief in the justice system that I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. On top of that, she didn’t grow up well-off, which made this naivete feel even more profound.

If Madison’s characteristics were shifted a bit, I think I would have enjoyed this one a lot more.

Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
