Ugh, terrible. None of the characters was remotely likable. It was really a struggle to get through...once I finished it I put it in my pile to take to the used book store. Then I pulled all my other books from this author also. I’m done. (

First edition very fine

I was a bit disappointed in this book, as I liked the last book I read by the author a lot more. This one was strange in some ways. The main character, a low-level partner in a law firm, seems like he's pretty smart and capable, but he kind of whines a lot about his hardships - mostly caused by drinking too much, but I suppose it started out from being an honest cop pushed into doing something dishonest, then getting caught and later being pushed to testify against his partner.

He complains about his love life, about being out of shape, about being underpaid, etc. Possible spoiler here... But when he gets a chance to have a relationship with someone he likes, another lawyer, he can't seem to handle it and eventually ruins things. And when he gets a chance to be a success and do the right thing, he balks. In the end, he seems to lose by getting what he thinks he wants. (

Abandoned at p. 170. It doesn't grip me at all. The characters are uninteresting, the plot is not moving, and the sideways do not make sense. (
