Fatal Reunion

A Criminal Game of Attraction (Verdicts and Vindication)

By: James Rosenberg

Narrated by: Matthew Chinman, Lilian Leibovitz

Sam Jordan’s dreams of legal stardom are long dead. Fired from his three previous law firms, he now spends his days handling fender benders and his nights drowning his frustrations in video games. When his wife announces she needs “space,” Sam hits a new low.

Then Gina—the woman who’s haunted his thoughts since college—unexpectantly reappears in his life, reigniting a passion Sam thought he’d buried. A romantic dinner rekindles his long-suppressed desires, and sparks a dangerous fantasy, a future with Gina, no matter the cost.
.
That dream shatters when Gina’s husband is found brutally murdered, their bedroom walls splattered with blood. Gina abruptly cuts ties with Sam, and he’s thrust into the center of a sprawling murder investigation.

As the prime suspect, can Sam navigate a treacherous web of lies, betrayal, and deadly secrets to defend himself against a damning tide of evidence?

A gripping combination of suspense and legal drama, James Rosenberg’s latest legal thriller mixes Gone Girl with Grisham, carving out a heart-pounding tale of obsession and justice gone awry.

Horrible female narration

The narration of the female prosecutor is unbearable. The story was fine but not the quality of the authors previous work.

The lack of courtroom experience

Why didn’t the defense present their witnesses. Only cross examination and closing …crazy. Not impressed at all with this court drama. Plus the female roles were hard to listen to.

Not as good as his other books

I have gotten to really like this author, but this book was just kinda meh. The narration was especially horrible! Probably it made the book seem worse than it actually was. I didn't know. Don't expect much if you listen to this audiobook!

Wanting more

I like the idea, but neither the plot nor the characters nor the audio input had much depth often lacked emotion and just not worth reading

0 substance

The author didn't take the listener through any real steps of a murder case. It's like he didn't want to put in the work. He skipped a lot of details of the investigation, the evidence, court room procedure. He even excluded the lawyer and client strategy. This book was awful. The female prosecutor had an obnoxious tone it was unnecessary. It was extremely annoying. Wow! I'm surprised the female narrator didn't catch it herself.
