Defense for the Devil

A Barbara Holloway Novel

De: Kate Wilhelm

Narrado por: A Full Cast

In her three previous novel appearances, attorney Barbara Holloway has taken on the sort of cases no one else wants: hopeless messes, all of them. But with the help of her father, Frank, she has pulled through each time. Even from the start, though, this new case is different.

Mitch Arno always meant bad news for the coastal town of Folsum, Oregon. When they ran him out of town 17 years ago, he left behind a wife with two daughters and a family that never wanted to see him again. When he returns, he brings trouble in the form of a lot of suspicious money. As Barbara attempts to counsel Mitch's wife about the money, a second form of trouble arrives: Mitch's corpse. Now Barbara is in a morass of conflicting interests, and the only way out could lead her straight into the arms of the devil.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Wilhelm's skill in spinning out endless complications while keeping every subplot perfectly clear makes this legal thriller her best in years." (Kirkus Reviews)

Enjoyable

Has you on edge and hoping she doesn't get herself a a worse mess.

I liked it

But too many characters to keep up with and follow!!! But it was a good story

Another great book.

I read all of the negative reviews prior to listening. I totally disagree with all the grips about the new narrator, she was just as good as Ms Field's. They actually sound a lot alike. I usually hate it when narrators are changed but this time I had a hard time telling the diffetence.

Enjoyed

Once again like all her books very intriguing. The narrator always does fabulous job. Will be listening or reading more.

Enjoying

I don’t usually listen to legal style books. But am enjoying the detail and twists in these so far.

Another awesome Kate Wilhelm Novel

Another edge of your sit novel by Kate Wilhelm. The evidence discovery and court room drama is realistic and interesting.

great story

I am really enjoying this series of books with Barbara Hollaway and her father as main characters. Can't wait to start the next one.

Entertaining.

Enjoying the series. The characters have depth and are interesting. Very enjoyable. Good story with several twists.

Always with the California snide remarks

Getting kind of tired of the characters. They don't seem to be developing. Living on the California just over 3 hours from Golds Beach, family in Florence, Eugene and a friend in Medford, I know the area well. I find that author tends to sugar-coat the area and lifestyle and always taking jabs at Californian(with a 800+ mile coastline) as if it is all the same way of life. Not sure if I will continue the series.

Fascinating

You can learn from this book some intricate facets of life, the value of family, relationships and how your passions effect others in your life.
