The book has an interesting premise. A defense lawyer with a reputation for bending the rules is being suspended from practising law for 3 years. Prior to the suspension taking effect, Jaywalker (the lawyer's nickname) is allowed to complete 10 final cases that he is already working on. While the first 9 are not complex, the last involves a young woman named Samara on trial for the murder of her husband, who happens to be considerable older (enough so to be her grandfather) and one of the wealthiest men in the United States. Thus people attribute the term "gold digger" to her - one who marries for money. To make matters worse, Samara, who is a former prostitute, has every piece of evidence stacked against her, despite her insistence of her innocence.
The question remains, then, can the renegade yet brilliant lawyer somehow win this impossible-to-win case? Also, if Samara hadn't killed her husband, who did and why frame her so well for it?
Style-wise, I enjoyed the book, presenting a somewhat unique format for the Q and A in the court room. More interestingly, Teller (the author) was himself a former DEA agent and defense lawyer - that old adage "write about what you know" shines through here, as Teller clearly knows his stuff. I also liked the way he explained more complicated legal points and terms in easy-to-understand ways.
As for the plot, it keeps wanting to smack me upside the head and say "Basic Instinct". Still, that was a movie that also left me wondering at the end and I like that - make the viewer, or reader in this case - do some active thinking, rather than just being a passive spectator. I knocked a star off the review to give it a "mere" 4 because I had a strong feeling about the identity of the killer about halfway through the book.
Nonetheless, I highly recommend this book, especially to those who enjoy legal dramas and good old "whodunnit"s!
