it was ok

I love Rob Rinder for his personality, experience, intelligence. I enjoyed his first book mostly and eagerly awaited this one's release. But sadly I've got to say it was a bit boring. (My school headmaster won't appreciate me using that word, sorry Mr Towne.) Some places picked up and were good, but I sometimes found my mind wandering when normally books grip me all through. That being said, I'd buy his next one.

Love this series

I’m already looking forward to the third book.
The only criticism - this also applies to the first book but on listening to the second it’s unfortunately really clear - the narrator makes an ok job of a great book. I think he is how Adam himself would sound, a little weak if I’m really honest!
R.R. has some characters that would be much funnier (Adams mother for example) and sharper with better narration.
The narrator is AWFUL at accents as well. I can imagine if this was read by someone like Steven Fry it would be hilarious.
R.R. states in the foreword that he has used artistic licence for some situations and I really hope this is in the places where I loose all faith in the British justice system but he is certainly not to blame for that!
It shows what great stories they are that the narration is only a slight disappointment and would not put me off anything else R.R. writes in the future.

Another barrister story

I loved Robs first book which made me get this one. I didn’t enjoy it as much. Sorry Rob. The stories around the TV studios went on a bit. The dogs in the pjs? It won’t put me off buying his next book. Perhaps it’s because I can’t imagine anything more boring than day time TV. So I hope my review does not put people off as the character of Adam is growing in interest. Hood luck with your next book.

Enjoyable Second Adam Green Story

Another great Adam Green story. Hooks you in and keeps you entertained throughout. I particularly love all the legal detail that comes with the author being a barrister. It moved on nicely from the first book and again, another excellent twist at the end.

Brilliant!

Thoroughly enjoyed this Rob’s second book and can’t wait for the next one. Having worked with Barristers for most of my working life I can say that the detail is excellent but never boring.

Plausible legal thriller

Listened solidly over a weekend decluttering. Great company. Good story rolled along briskly. Well performed too.

Great book 2

Flawless read, great story, reminded me of why I left law school after 2 years- loved the stories, I’m confident all barristers will relate.
