I read SYCAMORE ROW for the March 2014 pick in my neighborhood book club, and I'm happy to say that I really did enjoy this courtroom drama!

From the start, I knew there would be more to why Seth Hubbard would leave his $24 million estate to his maid, and cut his children and grandchildren out entirely. My only plot gripe would be that there didn't seem to be a good enough reason for Seth not to give a more complete explanation about his motives, since he planned everything so meticulously.

But that aside, I did enjoy once again rendezvousing with Jake Brigance from A TIME TO KILL fame, and the rest of the Canton, Mississippi cast of characters.

Despite some slow pacing and predictability, I still highly recommend SYCAMORE ROW, it was a richly told and satisfying legal mystery. B+
