Loved this! So glad I read it for CORE! Can't wait to see the movie and read the rest of the series.

A book that really feels so essentially Los Angeles, while also creating a masterful battle of intellects between protagonist and antagonist.

I picked up this book because I enjoyed watching the Netflix series. I was even more interested when I found out the plot of the first book was not covered in the series, so the plot was a surprise to me.
This book was super enticing and fast paced. I quickly realized I would be reading this book 100 pages at a time. I will definitely be following up on this series.

A fast read. Law novels aren't usually my thing but I really enjoyed it. And of course now to watch the Netflix series and complain.
