Enjoy an Excerpt:
Jake was a people watcher and his observant eyes took in
details about the various individuals who were walking by. He noticed an
attractive, well-dressed woman who wore her gray hair in an up-do style. She
reminded him of his own grandmother, so full of life and love and wisdom. As
she was getting into her car, a man grabbed her purse and tore it from her
hand. The purse snatcher shoved her to the ground as he took off running toward
Jake’s vehicle. Jake reacted without thinking, and he opened his car door into
the path of the running man. He shoved the door fast and hard, and he
straight-armed it like a football player.
The door and the purse snatcher collided, and the door won.
The thief’s face smacked into the window, and his knees banged against the
metal. He bounced off hard and landed flat on his back on the pavement,
dropping the purse as he fell. Jake got out of his vehicle, closed the door and
stood there looking down at the man. A bruise was forming on the man’s
forehead. He struggled to his knees, and he glanced at the purse on the ground
near Jake’s feet. Jake shook his head at him.
“Leave it.”
The man looked Jake up and down, and saw his worst case
scenario, a vigilante who still believed in chivalry.

My Impressions:
Nolan's premier novel, "Dead Lawyers Don't Lie, is an amazing
thriller. I
just really enjoyed this book. It was an exciting, suspenseful page
turner. Jake, Terrell, Beth and Sarah
were well developed layered characters that breathed life into the story. Jake
is a man full of honor, integrity and deep sense of purpose for life. I really
enjoyed the love and devotion that Jake and Cody have for each other; nothing
like a man and his dog to warm your heart.
The
only negative thing I can say about the book is that it could have been shorted
down a bit. Parts of the story seemed a little unnecessary and gave too much
explanation and backdrop when it would have been better to let imagination set
in. Other than that the story moved
nicely, kept me engaged. The author made sure the story was packed full of
action, gripping and had interesting characters, with a little romance and
humor mixed in.
