5.0 out of 5 stars This book was fantastic! I couldn't put it down.
It was fast moving, unpredictable and funny. I recommend it for people who love to see the good guys win.

2.0 out of 5 stars Implausible, but readable.
Implausible, but readable. Many loose ends get tied up at the end, but not the biggest mysteries. Why would a D.A. quit his job to take on his old case for free, while endangering his pregnant wife? How could he just a few weeks later join an NBA team, and oh yeah, be a star. Lazy plotting and absurd coincidences occur far too often.

I have read most of Tanenbaum's books of the Karp family. They are all good and this one is no exception!

2.0 out of 5 stars Readable Yet Not Realistic, September 30, 2006

This review is from: Material Witness (Paperback)
This is one of the earlier books in the Karp/Ciampi series by Robert Tanenbaum. The writer balances far too many plot lines and creates a most unlikely story. To his credit, it is most readable yet is nothing special. As time has progressed, the stories have gotten better than the work being reviewed.
