I'm not familiar with Connelly but now I know Jay will like it. I also didn't know it was a series so it looks like I will have some follow-up gift ideas.

I do like a legal thriller once in a while though and it is nice to know that this is a number one in a series.

I'll be interested to know what you thought.<BR/><BR/>Jackie / Farm Lane: I think audio adds to the suspense because I'm "forced" to listen to every word.

I always think that with a thriller it is good that you can race through the exciting bits! What is it like listening to them?
