From Publishers Weekly

The undistinguished academic career of Natalie "Nat" Greco, a mousy and naïve law professor at the University of Pennsylvania, takes an unexpected turn at the start of this less than compelling legal thriller from bestseller Scottoline (Dirty Blonde). When an attractive male colleague, Angus Holt, convinces Nat to accompany him on a teaching assignment at a nearby prison, a sudden riot puts them both in peril. Nat finds herself desperately attempting to save the life of a guard, apparently stabbed by an inmate during the fracas. The dying man asks her to pass on his last words to his wife, but possessing knowledge of this cryptic message proves dangerous. Nat finds herself accused of murder and must evade the law while also tracking down the bad guys. Her methods more often resemble that of Nancy Drew than an Ivy League professor, and the plot suffers by comparison with Peter Abrahams's gritty End of Story (2006), which makes better use of a similar theme. 11-city author tour.

From AudioFile

When Nat Greco, law professor, joins Angus Holt, a colleague with romance on his mind, on a teaching assignment at a nearby prison, she doesn't yet know she will rescue a guard, become a murder suspect, and be entrusted with a cryptic message from a dying man. Kate Burton powerfully characterizes a varied cast and makes them believable in this compelling legal thriller, which begins with a prison riot. Burton's adept pacing and staccato rhythm create an emotional pitch and a rising tension that animate her reading and deliver the message that the end justifies the means. Authentic sound effects accompany Burton's gripping narration to produce a captivating story.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Strong Plot, Weak Dialogue, and Unbelievable Action Sequences, Avril 16 2007
This review is from: Daddy's Girl (Hardcover)
If you love well constructed plots, Daddy's Girl will be a favorite of yours.

If instead, you are a fan of interesting characters and dialogue, Daddy's Girl may seem below average because only one character is at all interesting.

Alternately, if you like realistic action, you'll definitely think you've picked up a comic book by mistake.

As the book opens tiny, untenured law professor, Natalie (Nat) Greco, is struggling to teach her seminar class at Penn about justice by discussing The Merchant of Venice. The students haven't read the assignment. Things go downhill when Vice Dean James McConnell shows up to observe her teaching. Nat humorously wings it, and you'll find yourself liking her as a character from that point on.

When popular clinical teacher Angus Holt invites her to join him to teach the class at a minimum security prison the next day, Nat is too shy to resist. Things start off smoothly enough . . . until an incident occurs. Nat is shaken to the depths of her soul. Keeping a promise, Nat soon finds herself under suspicion for more crimes than are normally discussed in a semester of criminal law. While her rich father and close family try to help, Nat decides the time has come to run her own life. From there, the book takes a high action turn that will delight those who enjoy seeing heroines triumph.

With the exception of two references to Bennie Rosato, Daddy's Girl is all new characters and is based in part on Ms. Scottoline's recent experiences as a professor at Penn. Be sure not to read the acknowledgments until you finish the book: There's a humdinger of a spoiler in there that Ms. Scottoline warns you about (but you may not stop in time).

Nat isn't as good as Ms. Scottoline's best characters. But her supporting cast isn't nearly as good as Ms. Scottoline normally does.

On the other hand, I don't recall a better plot among the Scottoline novels.
