I truly enjoyed book # 2 of David Price mystery series. I could not put it down. You will be wondering who the killer was the entire time, and I love that about this book.

David Price, security escort for hire, returns in Tony Lindsey's newest installment, ONE DEAD LAWYER. This time around David is asked to protect the son of his ex-wife's friend, Daphne. When a prominent, but slick lawyer is murdered, several players in David's life are somehow connected and everyone is keeping secrets. Further complicating matters, David's ex, Regina, wants their son adopted by the man she is to marry.

ONE DEAD LAWYER is action-packed from the first page until the conclusion. The author provides several plot twists allowing for the culprit or culprits to remain a mystery until the end. The dialogue, between the characters, is realistic and humorous, the setting vivid and the societal ills and repercussions at play are absolute. With the return of David Price, Tony Lindsay continues to entertain.

Bodyguard for hire, David Price pays dearly in the case of "One Dead Lawyer" by Tony Lindsay. The threat of death or personal lost, real or perceived surrounds Price and he takes it personally and professionally. On a personal level, someone is threatening to take his son through adoption and more importantly, by name. Though it may have been handed down through slavery, all a black man has stripped down is his name. David's professional reputation takes a blow when two clients are shot dead at his doorstep. All of the trials David faces in this book are in the face of "law and order."

This blistering paced novel kept me up late at night and woke me early to get back to it to learn what was going to happen next. There was new intrigue on almost every page and it didn't stop until the very last one.

Tony Lindsay has won me over as one of today's best contemporary mystery writers with his David Price Mysteries.

I have read many of Tony's books, published and unpublished. I must say that this is one of his best! It is an absolute page turner that keeps you guessing until the very end. Bravo, my Brother.
