The Devil's Advocate: The Sunday Times Bestseller (Eddie Flynn Series)

Product Information

Steve Cavanagh has written another Eddie Flynn story that provides a believable plot with a variety of characters who have many facets and needs. These characters, helped along with some pointers and events from the author that keep America's current and historic racial troubles in view, give a cross spectrum of small-town life through the eyes of financially struggling families and businesses where close-knit (or everyone knows everyone's business) community and big personalities rub along within Mobile county, Alabama. After reading Cavanagh’s additional footnotes and revealing that four judges are currently responsible for 15% of the total number of death sentences in the US. I was intrigued to learn more. I'd have liked more of a journalistic take on what he thought of these people, their policies and the effect its had on the world at large, contrasted with what he knew about them as people. And better writing. The part on Benazir Bhutto's death, for instance, reads like parody. But I suspect Thapar himself would be bored by such an exercise, even if he had the rigour to pull it off (which I suspect he doesn't). DO READ the author’s note at the end of the book which talks about “The Fair Punishment Project” and America’s top Five deadliest prosecutors and the personalities that drive the death penalty.

Korn is a killer using his office as cover as he’s sent more people to their deaths than any other DA. Andy Dubois is arrested by sheriff Colt Lomax for the murder of popular Skylar Edwards, the town is out for revenge and Andy has little hope of a fair trial. Shadowy government fixer Alexander Berlin persuade Eddie to take the case when Andy‘s lawyer disappears. The team are about as welcome as Typhoid Mary. Can the “cavalry“ save Andy? The evidence has been rigged, witnesses have been silenced and Eddie and his team only have SEVEN days to find an angle that will save his client’s life and maybe take down the crooked D.A. in the process.Thank you to Steve Cavanagh, the publishers and Netgalley for an ARC, in exchange for an honest review. one thing is for sure - this book is compelling. i didnt find it as entertaining as some of the previous books in the series (this one is much more of a downer, imo), but it sure is eye opening. It is always interesting to trace the foundations of a strong poplar to its roots, and the biases of a self-narrative reflection aside, this memoir lives up to its expectations, offers vivid tales that assign new traits to revaluate some of the important personalities in our subcontinent, and makes for a light yet invigorating read.

Devil's Advocate: The Untold Story' তে নিজের দীর্ঘ কর্মজীবনের অম্ল-মধুর নানা ঘটনা লিখেছেন। তাতে অনেক বিখ্যাত ব্যক্তি হাজির হয়েছেন বিভিন্ন বিচিত্র রূপ নিয়ে। Honestly, I found this guy very interesting. His obsession with death penalties, his aura, the way he didn’t get off by physically killing people but by killing with his legal power really made me wonder and want to know more about him. He has had a tragic past which makes sense but I’m glad what happened to him later cause he had it coming. Though, this is still a 4⭐️ read, I didn’t enjoy it as much as past work-as Eddie Flynn and his clever cross examinations are what make the series so entertaining! We weren’t in the courtroom nearly long enough for my preferences! The Devil's Advocate confirms all the worst suspicions you may have harboured about its author Karan Thapar in particular and journalism in general. Biased approach towards interviews: Benazir Bhutto and Karan Thapar became friends when they became Presidents of Student Unions at Oxford and Cambridge, respectively. Later when she became the Prime Minister of Pakistan, he quoted this about the unique problem he faced while taking her interviews:
