A review by mycouscous
The King of Lies by John Hart

2.0

Great pacing kept me interested in this legal/murder thriller set in NC. I've heard a lot about John Hart, but hadn't gotten around to reading any of his material until now. The characters were pretty unsympathetic and miserable -- I couldn't empathize with anyone. Some seemed to be borderline stock characters as well. Better than the average thriller that I've encountered, with more emotional turmoil and depth from the protagonist, even if I didn't like him. If Good Reads would let me, I'd give this 2.5.
