The book is comprised with characters that are easy to root for; a victim who is facing jail due to being framed, there’s spunky kick-ass females and the lawyer with a righteous outlook to help those in need. For all the die hard crime, mystery, thriller lovers out there, this is a MUST READ! Sure, that's definitely my thing. And then there are characters that are meant to irk the reader; characters giving testimonials that you just want to shut up, shady police officers you want karma to bite on the ass, and the ruthless baddie who has little empathy.

It's fast-paced, with no dull fillers, the only thing I found disappointing was that it had to end. The book is a page turner indeed.

On one hand, there's Eddie Flynn, criminal defence attorney, whose perspective is compelling. all gripping stuff which reminded me of that film The Juror. I think if it was set in literally any other city OR have referenced more NYC IYKYK spots it would have PERFECT!

A serial killer thriller? This was crazily good. Hmmm, maybe not. The lucidity of the narrative is lost towards the climax.

I really enjoyed this. The only reason why I ordered this book is because of the title, it picked my curiosity and I couldn't stop myself but buy "Thirteen: The serial killer isn't on trial, he is in jury" From the POV of someone whose reading habit depends on mood and content of the book, I loved it!
