Trying a man's judgement, December 2, 2010
This review is from: Accused (Paperback)
Mark Gimenez, who knows Texas, takes his plotting and local color skills to the Gulf Coast for this legal thriller, which is in the Scott Turow tradition. Million-dollar Dallas attorney A. (for Atticus) Scott Fenney leaves Highland Park for Galveston to defend his ex-wife on a murder charge. The story is as good as the premise, and it goes down to the last sentence. Did Rebecca Fenney kill pro golfer Trey Rollins, the man she left her husband for? Gimenez, himself a BOI (Born on the Island), introduces readers to Galveston--after Hurricane Ike. The city becomes one of Gimenez's characters but doesn't get in the way of the compelling mystery, which climaxes with a twisting, turning murder trial, which is tastier than the shrimp at Gaido's.

Gimenez does it again, September 12, 2010
This review is from: Accused (Paperback)
This is a sequel to The Color of Law, and we find it amazing that this writer is not more widely known and that he is not widely published in the U.S. We read every book of Mark Gimenez that we can get our hands on, and thoroughly enjoy each one. Thank goodness that Amazon can give access to such writers.

Wonderful Legal Thriller!, January 12, 2012
My book club chose this book. I had never heard of Mark Gimenez before but love legal thrillers. To say the least, I was wonderfully surprised. Plus, our entire club enjoyed the book - which is most unusual! I can't wait to read his other books!
