4.0�toiles sur 5 Excellent behind the scenes look at an assistant DA., Juil 12 2004

Par	Kel "acountkel" (Charlotte, NC USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: Final Jeopardy (Mass Market Paperback)

This was a pretty good book. It is an excellent dipiction of what happens in the "sex crime unit" as an assistant district attorney. The story line was pretty decent as well. Alexandra is an assistant DA in the "sex crime unit" in NY. Her actress friend borrows her place on Martha's Vineyard and while she is there, she is murdered. At first the authorities think the murder was mistaken identity (should have been Alex) but as it turns out it wasn't. With a few twists and turns, the book continues nicely coming full circle at the end. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

2.0�toiles sur 5 Fair story, poor prose, F�v 25 2004

Par Un client

This review is from: Final Jeopardy (Mass Market Paperback)

I would have found this story of mystery and murder more engrossing if Fairstein's prose had been less murky, and the dialog less stilted. Conversations read like narrative, and it was often difficult to figure out who was speaking. The overall tone, even given the hard-boiled prosecutor and seen-it-all detectives, was flat and expressionless. With all the tightly written, literate crime novels out there, I wouldn't be inclined to try Ms. Fairstein's works again.

4.0�toiles sur 5 enjoyable and easy read, F�v 24 2004

Par	Paul Ammann (New Fairfield, CT United) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Final Jeopardy (Mass Market Paperback)

This book was my first introduction to Linda Fairstein. I'm more of a Patricia Cornwell fan. Overall, the book reminded me of tv shows Law & Order SVU and CSI. I had a hard time getting into the book at first, but quickly eased into Linda's writing style. The story flowed pretty quickly and smoothly, although the main character came across a little "dim-witted" between the middle and end of the book. The only odd thing I've noticed about Linda's books is that they aren't listed in order from book to book. I had to go to her web site to make sure I followed the proper order.

4.0�toiles sur 5 Decided to go back and read the first one...
Even though most mystery writers give a little past history in the first few pages of their new books, the information I kept getting in the next three books of Fairstein's novels... Read more

4.0�toiles sur 5 Can I make it a true Daily Double?
Being a big Jeopardy fan, I loved the fact that there were some Final Jeopardy questions thrown in. :-) Wonder if Alexandra is named for Alex Trebek? Read more

4.0�toiles sur 5 Lots of pulp, lots of fun.
The best thing that "Final Jeopardy" has going for it is its utter lack of pretension. Fairstein seems to know exactly what she's writing: fun, fast pulp fiction. Read more

When I read the back cover of this book I thought it sounded interesting, but I was wrong. I read 100 pages of this book before finally giving up. Read more
