I absolutely loved the series and that's why I bought the book but if you think that you r gonna find if he did it or not then don't buy it's almost same as the series and the ends where the series end so rather watch the series than buying the book .... I haven't read a good book like this in a very long time . So I am gonna ask you to buy this book but not if u hv watched the series .. watching the series is the better option than buying the book. ❤

Wow, one of the best books I have read in years. I read voraciously and to be able to say that this would be in my top ten books ever is a lot for me. It is thought provoking and a lot of the concepts really interesting - won't talk too much about them here as it will spoil the plot. Didn't see the ending coming at all, but it did wrap it up, if not neatly, but then life never is. Also enjoyed the question and answer section with the author at the end of the book. Again WOW!!!!!!!!

Absolutely cracking courtroom drama, and I personally really liked the OTT detail. This might be my favourite book of the year, but I do believe I say that after most books. Defending Jacob has just been made into a TV series which may well be worth a binge-watch 🧐
