This is my 2nd Phillip Margolin book and I'll be getting more; I love his style of writing. After Dark has all the elements you like in a mystery novel. Lots of action and intrigue and when you think you've figured out who the villan is, well, you're wrong.

The first woman ever hired by legendary defense lawyer Matthew Reynolds, Tracy Cavanaugh cuts her teeth on a horrifying crime: the car-bomb murder of Oregon Supreme Court Justice Robert Griffen. Reynold's client-and the chief suspect-is none other than the icy but celebrated prosecutor Abigail Griffen, the Justice's estranged wife. Tracy's research plunges her into a web of betrayal and revenge, of secret deals and hidden passions. At the heart of the case lies a twisted truth-and when the verdict comes in, she will discover that nothing is as it seems...after dark.
Really kept me on the edge of my seat.

This wasn't my favorite from this author. Some of the detail was too extensive and detailed. I like courtroom drama, but even in court it can get too wordy.

Not Margolins best, that was probably Gone,But Not Forgotten. But he always delivers a quick fast read.
