5.0 out of 5 stars Best Christian Legal Thriller I've Read, April 3, 2001
By Eric Wilson "novelist" (Nashville, TN United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This book takes you on a ride. Strap yourself in and wait for the Final Witness to appear.

James Scott Bell does many of the things that Grisham does so well: tight plotting, believable motivations, crackling dialogue. Like "The Great Divide," by T. Davis Bunn, Bell reaches for the top rungs of legal thrillerdom and succeeds. The narrative is leaner and less colorful than Bunn's, but this only allows it to race faster.

While working in some valid Christian themes, often based on legal examples, "Final Witness" tells the compelling story of Rachel Ybarra, a young paralegal working on a case against the Russian mob. The details of the courtroom seem well-researched, and the struggles that Rachel goes through--with her alcoholic father, her boss, her FBI friends, and particularly her nemesis "The Man"--move credibly to a very satisfying end with a few surprises along the way.

Bell's other books are going to the top of my wish list.

5.0 out of 5 stars Technicolor Plus, January 15, 2000
I'm not usually a fan of legal dramas, but then I'd never read James Scott Bell before. This striking, well-written novel will keep you turning pages well after lights out! Set in L.A., Final Witness deals with the Russian mafia, a subject I'd never read about before. Fascinating detail, well-rounded characters and colorful description are obvious trademarks of this author. But it is his fabulous dialogue that elevates this fast paced novel to a higher level of fiction writing. Should most definitely be a movie! You won't be disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing
this was the first book of Bell's that I have to say throughly disappointed me. I had read some of his more recents books and loved them and decided to look up his older works... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of time and money
This has got to be one of worst books I ever read.
The fact that 8 people gave it 5 stars is truly amazing.
