I thought it to be good,

This review is from: In The Presence of Enemies (Mass Market Paperback)
If you like books with good attorney drama you'll like this one. Jake is a good character, split between his wife and Mrs. Daren, it gets more complicated by his employer. Sage is a good opponent. The Daren family, the spoiled brat Chip and his sister Gussie add to the plot. If you like Grisham you'll like this. I recommend it. It's not overpowering, but a solid 4 star book.

Misleading,
By Rick Dames "mostly unabridged audiobooks" (Las Vegas, NV United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: In The Presence of Enemies (Mass Market Paperback)
I didn't feel that this was a bad book - It wsn't Coughlin's best, but...The jacket and the review keep talking about an afair between lawyer Jake Martin and client (about to be wealthy) widow. They never as much as kissed, or discussed a relationsip, or went out together. There was absolutely no personal relationship. It was surely put on the book jacket to make one feel that there will be exciting sexual tension and moral delemas - but I waited and waited for that plot twist and it never started. It was completely fraudulant and an absolute lie on the book cover and I'm seeing it in one of your synopsyses. I never vote for more Governmant regulation - but, out and out lying to sell a book - you should be ashamed.

Lier, Lier, Pants on Fire!,
This review is from: In The Presence of Enemies (Mass Market Paperback)
Jake and Elizabeth weren't lovers as the back cover stated! Other than that, it was a good book and I read it twice. It's one of my favorites from WJC.
