Thriller
  BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |
OK legal novel about man accused of mass murder in El Salvador after leading a changed identity. Not good enough to look for other books by Finder.
  derailer | Jan 25, 2024 |
Legal thriller put together pretty well. Writing style is fun and interesting. This book was written 20 years ago so you have to allow for the massive change in technology and two decades of history; nevertheless, plausible in today's environment. Takes a shot a military justice. There were so many unexpected surprises, and the intensity was great! ( )

excellent military trial read ( )

Claire Heller Chapman is a very successful attorney who teaches law. One day at the mall with her husband and daughter, police start chasing her husband and claim he is someone else who committed a terrible crime in another country, El Salvador. He was a member of a secret military group and 87 innocent villagers were murdered. She finds out he was accused and escaped, changed his face and name and they have been married for several years. He said that he doesn't know who killed the villagers as he was in a different part of the village when it happened. Claire joins a military attorney and a civilian attorney who is an expert on military justice. She finds enough evidence to clear her husband only to find he and another man from the group were guilty. Apparently there was a movie about this with Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd. I enjoyed the book.

Citaten
Hij die ogen heeft om mee te kijken en oren om mee te horen, kan zichzelf ervan overtuigen dat geen enkele sterveling een geheim kan bewaren. Als zijn lippen zwijgen, kwebbelt hij met zijn vingertoppen. Uit elk van zijn poriën drupt verraad. (Sigmund Freud, Dora)
