About this audiobook
A doctor in love with his patient's wife...
A fatal mistake during surgery...
Accident? Malpractice? Or murder?
Defending a surgeon in a malpractice case, Jake Lassiter begins to suspect that his client is innocent of negligence...but guilty of murder. Add a sexy widow, a deadly drug, and a grave robbery to the stew, and you have Miami's trial of the century.
"Move over Scott Turow. To Speak for the Dead is courtroom drama at its very best." - Larry King, USA Today

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Got this as a freebie and was pleasantly surprised. Decent plot, fun characters, not predictable at all. I would have given it a higher rating if the "romance" hadn't been so ridiculous. It was almost like it was an afterthought. No chemistry, no buildup, nothing but wham-bam-thank-you-sir (sir instead of ma'am because ma'am was the aggressor in this case which also fell flat for me). Given that this was the first in a series, I'll give that "romance" a pass and see how I like the next one in the series.
