A big thank you to Simon & Shuster Inc. for sending this book along to me.
TITLE: Old City Hall
AUTHOR: Robert Rotenberg
RATING: 3.5 Stars
I had never heard of Robert Rotenberg before reading this book - but I have since found out that he was a courtroom lawyer, which would certainly explain the obvious thorough knowledge the author has of the criminal/courtroom system.This, to me, was the best feature of this book. While the storyline was interesting - i.e. a popular radio host admits that he is a killer - but is he really? what really got interested in this book was the detail and research that was done on the whole criminal system - including the minute details of the crime and the victim as well as the search for the truth. I found myself fascinated with the indepth descriptions and this, made this book a real page turner for me!
I also like the fact that this author is Canadian and based his story in Toronto - around "the Hall" which I actually can visualize having seen it a few times in the past when I visited Toronto.
This is a sound mystery/thriller book that will keep you reading.

That does sound interesting. I'm going to guess that the radio show host wasn't the killer.
Thank you very much Tina,
I'm very glad that you enjoyed it!

I am so waiting for this book to come out. I have a reserve at the library.
