Over the last few years, I have considerably reduced the number of thrillers I read, mainly because they all started to sound the same to me, especially the legal ones.
Having said that, however, every once in a while, I am lucky enough to find one that captures my interest and fully engages me -- which was the case with THE LAST JUSTICE.
Firstly, the author created an opening chapter that instantly grabbed me. I can never understand why authors who write thrillers don't realize that we need to be 'thrilled' from chapter 1. It is obvious that Frazer knows this as this chapter opens with a shootout in the US Supreme Court with a killer who manages to escape.
This is the set up for a plot line that basically runs at 100 miles an hour and does not stop until its fitting and unpredictable ending.
THE LAST JUSTICE is well structured, with both events and characters that are interesting and intriguing. I have to admit that I could have done without the 'romance' part of the book as I don't feel that it was needed -- the story was strong enough to sustain itself, but this is such a minor detail and in no way removed my enjoyment.
This legal thriller is a great ride, full of did not see that coming' moments and with an ending that will surprise you.
THE LAST JUSTICE is wonderful.
