Trader of Secrets by Steve Martini
My rating: 1 of 5 stars
I am not so narrow that I don’t think writers can cross all sorts of genre barriers. This one didn’t work for me. I sort of liked Martini’s legal thrillers. And I mean sort of in the I-don’t-have-anything-appealing-to-read-so-this’ll-do way.
There are hundreds of reviews out there that explain just what’s wrong with this story, with lawyers as spy novel protagonists, etc. I’ll leave that to them.
All I have to say is that from the start I was rooting for the bad guy – and that’s not a good thing.
