Joel Goldman: Knife Fight

Click to see in Amazon

Alex Stone is a public defender who is tiring of defending people who are guilty. This short story is about what happens one day when she decides to take justice in her own hands.

Joel Goldman writes well and in this one he writes very cleverly in the first person and words of the accused murderer. The best thing about this very short story is the twist in the tail.

The story is too short for any real character development for Alex Stone and I have no idea of how Joel Goldman can build a new book series around this character. But having enjoyed his other books I'm sure the new series will be worth reading.
