Fatal Flaw Book
Fatal Flaw is a rare delight: a legal thriller with freshness and vitality, qualities too often lacking in this sometimes-tired genre. This third entry in the Victor Carl series opens with a bang, as Victor finds fellow lawyer Guy Forrest at the front of his lover's house, stark naked in the pouring rain, a gun beside him, his lover's bloody corpse on the bed inside. He sure looks guilty--but then, little is as it looks in this exceedingly well-plotted tale. The first 30 pages alone deliver several jolting revelations that change what we thought we knew, and the surprises keep coming right up to the last few pages.Fortunately, William Lashner is as fine a wordsmith as he is a plotter. The settings are crisply evoked, from Philadelphia and Las Vegas to the dirt-poor Appalachians. All the characters are vivid, and a few--including the murder victim--are unforgettable. But it's the narrative voice of Victor Carl that really carries the book. Cynical, funny, streetwise and ethically flexible, he's an exceptionally engaging writer. And, like some of the wisecracking private eyes he resembles, he can deliver both breezy sarcasm and real emotional power. --Nicholas H Allison, Amazon.comRead More
