An Innocent Client: Joe Dillard, Book 1

A really good story with the twists of Agatha Christie.The ending is a nice touch. All the characters are believable but it did concern me about the justice in the American justice system.Read it and enjoy it.

Have read all the Joe Dillard series and enjoyed them - good characters and stories

Good story line. Good characters. Easy to read. I have just bought the second in the series.

I really enjoyed this book. It is easy reading and likeable characters and easy to follow. Looking forward to reading more by the same author.

This was a fast. Moving detective story of a lawyer representing a madam. The story twists and turns an is depicted through the eyes of a few legal people and the main characters family.I really enjoyed the story throughout and found it gripping and entertaining.I would recommend this book as a very good read.

It's always a bit of a gamble when trying an author you haven't read before - however, in this Scott Pratt novel my gamble paid off and I was rewarded with a rather good read. It kept me engaged, the story flowed quite nicely and he didn't do masses of waffle to show how much he knows about the law - I think he got the level of 'factual bits' just right. In my humble opinion, many authors fall into the trap of using a novel to show off their knowledge of a particular topic and forget that the point of a fictional novel is to entertain, not educate - that's what academic text books are for. I've bought his next two Dillard novels and look forward to reading them. I'd certainly recommend having a read of Mr Pratt's books - most enjoyable.

The read was confusing at first as it seemed to jump from one principle character to another, however, as you read further on, things become clearer and ends with an unpredictable clever twist. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a John Grisham likw style of courtroom drama with a James Patterson crime style.

I usually like Grisham legal thrillers but this was in the same ball park and was decent a read.I’ll definitely be reading the next Joe Dillard book in the series and take it from there.
