Book Description:
From Publishers Weekly:

This clever, colorful thriller from former attorney Levine (The Deep-Blue Alibi, etc.) focuses as much on the age-old conflict between Mars and Venus as on delivering legal wisecracks and page-turning suspense.

Miami defense attorney Steve Solomon and his partner in law and love, Victoria Lord, rarely see eye to eye. He bends the rules, and she plays by the book; he wants to buy a house, but she dreams of high-rise living. Housing is the least of their problems, however, when Steve's former client, convicted killer Dr. William Kreeger, discovers that Steve lost his case on purpose.

The threats start with a 300-pound fish dangling from Steve's door and quickly escalate. But how does one outwit a lethal psychologist with a genius IQ?

Levine ratchets up the tension with each development but never neglects the heart of the story -— his characters. The wily, rough-around-the-edges Steve, the Manolo-loving Victoria or Steve's anagram-obsessed and utterly endearing nephew are each drawn with a fine hand, making them feel more like friends than figments of Levine's imagination. As a result, readers will leave this series entry with the hope that many more will be forthcoming.

This is the third book in the Solomon/Lord series - first I've read, but I certainly plan on reading the first two asap.

Exquisitely funny. Another in a great series.

This is the 3rd book in the Solomon vs Lord series. It is a legal thriller with lots of laugh out loud humor, with just a hit of romance. The 2 main characters, Solomon and Lord are as opposite as you can get, like oil and water. If you are looking for a book with some twists and turn, and don't care if sosmeone hears you laugh out loud, give this series a try. You will also love the secondary characters. I'm looking forward to more in this series.

This was a great book! I foud this book very hard to put down. It had its own brand of humor that was refreshing. I thought it was very well written and that the characters could almost be real people.

From the book cover, "Paul Levine writes some of the funniest-- and most wickedly accurate-- courthouse dramas you'll ever read.--Carl Hiaasen."

They're the legal world's oddest couple, a shorts-and-sandals beach bum and a Coral Gables blue blood. When a 300 pound marlin, stuck in his front door, Steve Solomon must figure out who's making the bizarre threats and why. A killer on the loose and legal disaster looming in his life, his law partner about to leave him, what to do, what to do?

A third installment in the Solomon-Lord partnership/relationship. This is a good series and according to the blurb, more are on the way.

I love this series! Snappy dialogue, characters I care about, and a good story. Much funnier than the Plum books, imho.

I love this series, I do enjoy the off & on romance with Steve Solomon & Victoria Lord, keeps you guessing, then his sister Janis is out of jail and wants her son Bobby back. The story is a good action mystery not much time spent in courtroom which I missed.
