Novamente a advogada Morgan Dane livrando inocentes da prisão e resolvendo casos jurídicos complexos e perigosos. Muito bom.

I liked this a lot. It truly felt like they were up against the wall and fighting a losing battle. Every time I thought I knew who did it, something else happened. It was all so perfectly planned out. It was a good crime novel, just the right amount of misdirection and twists and turns.

What I've Done
4 Stars
At the behest of Lincoln Sharp, Morgan decides to represent a young woman accused of stabbing her lover to death. Despite an abundance of forensic evidence stacked again her client, Morgan is convinced that there is more to the case than meets the eye, and someone has deliberately framed Haley Powell for murder. The questions are who and why?
This 4th installment in the Morgan Dane series is a bit of a departure as the genre shifts away from romantic suspense and toward the classic mystery-thriller. This is not surprising as Morgan and Lance's relationship is now well-established and becomes even more solidified in this book.
The focus is almost entirely on the investigation and the obvious frame-up job. As the details are slowly revealed and the number of suspects increases, it really isn't possible for the reader to formulate any theories, and one simply has to go with the flow. This is unfortunate as my preferred plot is one in which it is possible to follow the clues and work out the explanation for myself - ah well ...
That said, the mystery itself is interesting and one cannot help but feel for Haley, who is obviously traumatized, and hope that everything will ultimately work out.
Overall, a good addition to the series and I am enjoying my ongoing buddy read in the 2-3-4 Challenge group.

Morgan takes a case to help a friend of Sharps. A lot of Sharp's background is finally revealed giving insight to the man. Morgan is attacked at the courthouse. She and Lance advance their relationship and the case they are working on brings attempts on both of their lives. Enjoyed this one with more character development and insight. Interesting murder who done it.

Another great book in this series, I love these characters and the stories. Very talented writer and can't wait to read what's coming up next. Lance and Morgan are a great team and work really well together.
