Search - The Associate

I really like Phillip Margolin's style of writing.... The young lawyer who is living his dream of being an associate for a prestigious law firm is falsely accused of murder. This intricate conspiracy plot to frame him stems from murder/kidnappings that happened years before and the real villian will surprise you.

Wow, this book had so many twists and thrils!! Keeps you wanting to know more and more. A lawyer believes that a case has no merit, and ends up trying to find the truth. It really gets intense! Great book to read!

This was a good read, but not the best Margolin. Pretty good at keeping you guessing who done it...

A fast moving Margolin tale with twists and turns that will keep you involved.

An interesting read, but not the most memorable.

A poster boy for the American Dream, former blue collar boy turned high-powered lawyer Daniel Ames is on easy street as an associate at Reed, Briggs, Portland's most prestigious law firm.

Until one man...and one case...changes everything.

When a charismatic lawyer sues the firm's biggest client, a pharmaceutical company, for manufacturing a drug that causes unspeakable birth defects, Daniel believes the case has no merit. But when information implicating company malfeasance surfaces, the intrepid lawyer doggedly scrambles to find the truth--an investigation that leads him into a vortex of greed, corruption, deceit, and murder. Suddenly caught on the wrong side of the law and in the crosshairs of a powerful enemy, Daniel must unmask an evil conspiracy that wants to bury a deadly secret...and Daniel with it.

Up to Margolin's usual excellent standard :)
