William Deverell. KILL ALL THE LAWYERS. Ballantine, 1994.
Firstly, I ask myself: Why do I spend time reading about characters I do not like and do now care about? It is well-written. Amusing. Complicated plot. Literary allusions. Characters with quirks (twitchers and witches). A frustrated writer. Irony. Complicated relationships. But really, I don't want to know about wealth, blackmail, and collusion between judges, lawyers, police, FBI, and gangsters.
