Thirteen The serial killer isn't on trial He on the jury 9781409170662 Books

The premise for this novel is an exciting one. Joshua Kane has this evil desire to commit a serial killing but wants to make sure that he never gets caught. To do this, Kane hatches a scheme to land himself a seat on the jury of a coming murder trial. The defendant in this trial is a celebrity actor named Robert “Bobby” Solomon. Kane is successful and, once the trial gets underway, tries to influence the rest of the juror’s thinking so that Bobby will eventually be found guilty.
Bobby’s attorney for his defense is Eddie Flynn, a fellow that I’ve seen before in other novels by Cavanagh. Flynn has a checkered history. He was once a professional con man before getting his life straightened out and winning a law degree. Flynn’s experience as a con man works to his advantage at times when dealing with the prosecution and witnesses who are not favorable to his client’s case. Flynn is also an old friend of the judge in this case and, in several incidents during the trial, I thought the judge’s actions crossed the line of judicial prudence.
Bobby’s trial moves ahead slowly while other incidents make Flynn realize there is a person on the jury with an ulterior motive. Unfortunately, for at least this reader, I came to a different conclusion than what was revealed in the book’s ending. I’ll admit it was a surprise but I also felt that the most readers will feel tricked, not by an unreliable narrator but by an unreliable author.
This book could have been much better and I’m disappointed in having to wade through the entire novel only to feel a huge letdown at the end.

Thirteen The serial killer isn't on trial He on the jury 9781409170662 Books Reviews

A decent read, certainly it's unputdownable. However, it's also rather unreal that someone can take someone else's identity so well, so quickly, and so relevant to the plot within the book. Very entertaining but with a rather wild and bloody ending. It's worth buying for lovers of courtroom drama, though.
Steve Cavanagh is a star. His books are so fun. The plots are complex and paced so that you can barely put the book down. I really think this was the best so far but they have all been amazing.
For the most part the book is well written. I liked the trial proceedings, investigation,. and forensics. However I felt the ending was too clever. Instead of leaving me satisfied I felt like I had been used. Maybe an epilog which gave a review and summary might have given the reader a more satisfying closure
All books by Steve Cavanagh have a good plot, an excellent dialog and they do not disappoint.
Thirteen is superb, in the M. Connally manner of writing. I wish Mr. Cavanagh continues to delight us with such books.
Love this series, just really wish all of the books were available for . I don’t know why they aren’t, but the paperback versions I had to buy to read these helped reinforce my love of the kindle.
This is a great read. Well written too compared to some books I'veread recently. In many ways you know there is going to be a specific type of outcome but nevertheless its a real page turner to see how the villain gets his comeuppance!! Only disappointing thing was the conclusion, dont want to give away the ending but I felt that there was abetter one that could have been used.
Other reviewers have explained the basic premise and the plot - I'll just add that this is a well crafted story. The pacing is excellent and builds throughout the book, carve out some time to read the last 1/2 pretty much all in one chunk because you won't want to stop until you find out what happens. I think this will be a break-out book for Cavanagh - his earlier Eddie Flynn books are good, this one is really excellent.
