Search - Silent Witness (Tony Lord, Bk 2)

This is another great book by Patterson...it will keep you guessing.

This book was excellent! Although the subject was a bit disturbing, the story was gripping, interesting and well written. Patterson has you so connected to the characters, so involved in their story that you begin to think of them as real people...I also liked the way the story moved back and forth between the two time periods. It helped to explain the motives of the characters. This kept me guessing until the end. Even though the outcome seemed to be clear, the twists and clever plot devices kept you second-guessing yourself and your instincts! I couldn't put this one down!

I read it a long time ago, but remember enjoying the intense courtroom drama.

This is an edge of your seat book, not too dark - well maybe a little. A whodunit book with a surprise ending. 5 stars

Attorney Tony Lord left his hometown and the bitter memories of his girlfriend's murder behind. Now, twenty-seven years later, he's pulled back to Lake City to defend his closest high school friend against a charge of homicide. Sam Robb, the married father of two, is a local football legend. But he was also the last to see sixteen-year-old Marcie Calder alive, and as shocking forensic evidence at the trial reveals, he is the father of her unborn child. Probing the darkest recesses of love and friendship, Lord will discover things too disturbing to ignore - that Sam wasn't the only one in Lake City with a motive for killing Marcie, that small-town secrets can hide devastating betrayals, and that the past has a way of repeating itself...even murder.

This is a page turner!! I loved it!! Just when you think you know how it will end, it turns you completely around the other way. This is a must read for the suspense and mystery book lover!
