Review

Rosenfelt demonstrates again that hes a master storyteller in this immensely enjoyable new Andy Carpenter novel. His writing is crisp, his plot unfolds at a rapid clip and his characters are people youd like to hang out with. Surprises in the plot and gripping courtroom scenes make it difficult to put down.RT Book Reviews (4 stars) on Unleashed
Unlike Rosenfelts supercharged stand-alones, books in the Andy Carpenter series are more leisurely, character-driven pleasuresRosenfelt has had plenty of time to hone his protagonists wiseass humor and refine his oddball cast, which, alongside millionaire defense attorney Carpenter, includes four octogenarian computer whizzes, a taciturn bodyguard, and a brainiac accountant.
