19. The Murder Rule

Tue Sep 6, 2022, 10:00 PM

Sep 2022

by Dervla McTiernan. Hannah transfer from the University of Maine law school to the law school at the University of Virginia, so she can work on a specific Innocence Project. I'm about a third of the way into it, and it's VERY good so far.

When a book is this good early on, I get nervous that it won't end as well, that the ending will be a cheat or disappointing. That's happened far too often in recent years. Keeping my fingers crossed for this one.
