Thriller Legal
Her Kind of Case is a legal drama that centers on
Lee Isaacs, a female defense attorney on the cusp of turning
60, who, out of curiosity, determination, and desire for a
big, even impossible, professional challenge, chooses to
take on a tough murder case in which a largely uncooperative
young man is accused of helping kill a gay gang member. This
beautifully written novel, which earned a starred review
from Kirkus, is built around not only a gradually resolving
mystery, but by fully fleshed-out characters, particularly
the strong-willed and sharp-witted Lee. It is a breath of
fresh air to see someone of Lee's standing achieve career
and personal success as an older single woman who grieves
the recent loss of her husband, but continues her daily
routine of law and karate, fighting tooth and nail to prove
her client not guilty. (Note: The author, Jeanne Winer, is
herself a longtime defense attorney in Boulder, Colorado,
and a black-belt karate expert.)
