As a fellow black sheep of the family (I wear it as a badge of honor now), I had to read this oneand it did not disappoint! Lisa Scottoline delivers a legal thriller packed with family drama, murder, and enough secrets to keep you flipping pages late into the night.

TJ Devlin is the outcast in his successful, lawyer-filled family. He’s trying to rebuild his life after past mistakes, but when he stumbles onto a murder tied to his family’s law firm, things take a wild turn. The deeper he digs, the messier things get because in this family, the truth is a dangerous thing.

This book is so much fun. It’sfast-paced, full of juicy family tension, and had me hooked from the start. But I have to say the ending? A little underwhelming for me. I wanted more of a punch. Still, it’s a solid, entertaining read that’s perfect if you love legal thrillers with complex family dynamics.
