5.0 out of 5 stars Eagerly awaited and fabulously rewarding read, May 3, 2009

This review is from: Justice for All (Paperback)

Has it really been four years since 'Justice Served' was published? The characters are so vivid!

From the first chapter involving the sinister and diabolical thirty-seven year old Kratos Zamora the head of a Philadelphia crime syndicate the reader is enveloped in the story.

Back at the heart of the novel are the determined Lieutenant Rebecca Frye and her elegant and tender lover Doctor Catherine Rawlings. Their romance and intense regard for each other is beautiful to read.

The strength of the relationship between Dellon Mitchell, a young police officer and Sandy a eighteen year old prostitute/and one of Rebecca's informants grows while Dell goes undercover with a Russian woman brought into the country illegally who turns informant for personal reasons.

Integral to the plot are JT Sloan, an internet security consultant and her lover of over a year Michael Lassiter, a theoretical design CEO of her own company.

Fleshing out the story are Watts the hard-boiled detective and right hand to Lt. Frye, Jason McBride the computer genius working with JT Sloan who has a double life of his own and the bars and the streets of the city come to life so vividly that they too become characters of the story.

The terrific thread that they all share is that each has a different conflict that must be faced during the course of the story, how they address their conflict, right or wrong, puts a tremendous pull on the reader to not put the book down until the final satisfying page.

Don't miss any of the books in this terrific series -

A Matter of Trust
Shield of Justice
In Pursuit of Justice
Justice in the Shadows

3.0 out of 5 stars Visiting old friends, June 2, 2009

By 

lenkalotte (Germany) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Justice for All (Paperback)

Latest addition to Radclyffe's Justice series.

I have no idea why I love this bunch of people as much as I do, and I must say that the book could probably be really crappy and I wouldn't have noticed. Ok, so I might notice, but I'm not sure I would care.

It wasn't crappy, not at all. It picked up right where the last one left off and was action packed right to the last page.

There were some things that didn't work for me as much as the previous books in this series did though. There was an additional POV that I don't think existed in the previous books, the one of the 'bad guy'. I'm not entirely convinced that it was necessary to the story or that the information it provided could not have been provided in any other way. It felt awkward in the flow, especially since there really wasn't a lot of it. I also felt that the Rebecca/Catherine relationship in this book was more a rehashing of the previous books and didn't provide much in the way of development as it did for the other couples featured in this series.

But none of that stood in the way of me thoroughly enjoying the story and getting to visit with old pals

5.0 out of 5 stars A Rose By Any Other Name Would Smell As Sweet..., June 21, 2009

By

This review is from: Justice for All (Paperback)

This latest in Radclyffe's Justice series really stands out and deepens the dimensionality of the characters. However, the quality of the storyline is only enhanced by the sheer erotica of the text. Three protagonist couples - Rebecca and Catherine, Michael and Sloan, Dellon and Sandy - combined with this author's tendency to maximize masterfully-written sex scenes yields a book that could be considered an erotic anthology as well as the drama it is intended to be.

Radclyffe was my first exposure to LLL fiction. Of all her books, I have only been disappointed by two (gave 4 stars instead of 5). One of those was the latest installment in the Honor series (Word of Honor) because the story is losing steam. I was afraid that would happen with the Justice series as well with this 5th book (not including `A Matter of Trust'), but it has certainly held on. You can read the other reviews, especially the one by E.B. Mulligan, to see the story details. My intent here is to tell you this is a great book and shouldn't be missed.

Bottom Line -- This reader considers `Justice for All' to be one of the best in the series. Excellent continuation of a great storyline.
