About this listen

John Bookman - Book to his friends - is a tenured professor at the University of Texas School of Law. He's 35, handsome, and unmarried. He teaches Constitutional Law, reduces senators to blithering fools on talk shows, and is often mentioned as a future Supreme Court nominee. But Book is also famous for something more unusual. He likes to take on lost causes and win.

Consequently, when he arrives at the law school each Monday morning, hundreds of letters await him, letters from desperate Americans around the country seeking his help. Every now and then, one letter captures his attention and Book feels compelled to act.

In the first of a thrilling new series from the author of international best sellers The Colour of Law and Accused, Book investigates a murder set in the high-stakes world of fracking and corruption in deepest, darkest Texas.

Mark others bits are much better, This story I found slow, and overly predictable. As it often happens with mark Gimenez’s books they are a very slow builder and to a big finale which is often over fast to quickly...

I was worried I may not like this book after being disappointed by The Governor's wife. However, as I had loved The accused and the Colour of law by the same author I thought I would give it a go. I'm very glad I did. I would definitely read another in this series as it says book 1. Good characterisation and brilliant narration made this a good listen. I would not be put off by other reviews moaning about the constitutional law elements, I found them interesting and at times funny.

excellent romp

Would you listen to Con Law again? Why?

No - I never listen to any book twice.

What other book might you compare Con Law to, and why?

He is a bit of a Jack Reacher - particularly as Jeff Harding also narrates Reacher.

Have you listened to any of Jeff Harding’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Have listened to Jeff Harding narrate Jack Reacher novels. This was the same style and suited the story.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

Immediately looked for Book 2- was disappointed that it is not yet available.
