From Publishers Weekly

A lawyer defending a judge against a sexual harassment suit gets more than she bargained for when the judge's accuser is murdered.
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.

From Library Journal

Against her better judgment, Rita Morrone, a smart-mouthed, poker-playing young lawyer, agrees to represent her lover's father, a respected judge, against a sexual harassment charge brought by his secretary. As she prepares to go to trial, little does she know that her lover, Paul, is also involved in the case and that the lady in question will end up murdered; furthermore, she doesn't suspect that her own life and that of her father will lie in the balance. Yet as she investigates, it becomes increasingly clear that the good judge is being framed. Despite her fury at Paul for his infidelity and her concern for her father, she does her homework and?with a little help from her octogenarian poker cronies?deftly nails the murderer. Readers of courtroom fiction will love this latest by Scottoline, who was nominated for an Edgar Award for Final Appeal (HarperCollins, 1994). Recommended for public libaries.?Susan Clifford, Hughes Aircraft Co. Lib., Los Angeles

1.0étoiles sur 5 very disappointing and poor writing, Jui 14 2004
Par book lover "Pat" (Philadelphiia, PA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Running from the Law Low Price (Audio Cassette)
This was my first, and last, book by the esteemed author, Lisa Scottline. As a native Philadelphian, I was eager to read her books. Boy, was I disappointed. The plot was unbelievable and the writing below par.

1.0étoiles sur 5 running from this "lawyer", Mai 28 2004
Par Duncmac2 "duncmac2" (Niagara, ON Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Running from the Law (Hardcover)
Terrible. Poorly written, ethically stupifying (this author is a real lawer, and lectures in ethics???) God help the legal system of the U.S.A. But that aside, I really think the author completely missed the boat in terms of plot, characterization or suspense. It's easily Scottoline's weakest effort, at least among those I've read. She can do so much better; give this one the go-by.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A good murder mystery., Mai 18 2004
Par Blaine Greenfield "eclectic reader" (Belle Meade, NJ) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Running from the Law (Hardcover)
Enjoyed listening to RUNNING FROM THE LAW by Lisa
Scottoline . . . this is a fast-paced novel about Rita Morrone, a
lawyer who takes on the defense of a distinguished federal judge
accused of sexual harassment . . . when the judge's young
secretary is then found murdered, he becomes a prime suspect.

There's a good plot here, as well as catchy dialogue . . . I liked the ending, too . . . and the fact that the story is set in Philadelphia added to my enjoyment.

Karen Allen did the narration . . . she starred in one of my
favorite all-time films, STARMAN . . . however, her work here
is only fair at best.

wacky and witty characters, steady pacing. more of a detective story than a legal drama, though brief courtroom scenes are memorable. a lively and enjoyable breeze to read.
