New York Times best-selling author Sheldon Siegel returns with a harrowing new case for the San Francisco law firm of Daley and Fernandez. As husband and wife, Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez couldn't make it work. But as partners in one of San Francisco's most tenacious law firms, Daley and Fernandez make one hell of a team. Judgment Day finds the ex-spouses tackling their most difficult case yet. Called in at the last minute to try to stop the execution of Nathan Fineman, a former mob lawyer convicted of murdering three people in the back room of Chinatown's notorious Golden Dragon Restaurant, Mike and Rosie must race the clock in a desperate attempt to prove their client's innocence. With only ten days to go and a wealth of forensic evidence pointing overwhelmingly to Fineman's guilt, their task seems impossible. Complicating matters, Mike must battle his own personal demons when the reputation of his dead father-a San Francisco cop who was one of the first officers at the scene the night of the murders-is called into question. And as the plot hurtles toward its stunning denouement, judgment day is fast approaching not only for Nate Fineman, but for Mike's father and the law firm of Daley and Fernandez as well. About the author: Sheldon Siegel, a graduate of the University of California at Berkeley's Boalt Hall School of Law, has been a practicing attorney in San Francisco for more than twenty-five years. Judgment Day is the sixth novel in his series of critically acclaimed, best-selling courtroom dramas featuring San Francisco criminal-defense lawyers Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez. Siegel lives in Marin County, California, with his wife, Linda, and twin sons, Alan and Stephen. He is currently working on his seventh novel.

In this sixth book in the series, Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez are working against the clock to stay the death row execution of a pretty unpopular lawyer. He is entitled to a defense so they once again provide it with the help of family and friends. I enjoy a good legal thriller, especially when the main characters are likeable, real people. I look forward to reading the next in the series. ( )

This is #6 in the series, and the best of the three that I have listened to. The plot is fairly intricate, although there is little doubt about the outcome, no matter how little time remaining. Siegel tends to reveal crucial facts only at the very end, so it is almost impossible to guess how the mystery will resolve itself, a weakness in the telling. Nevertheless, it held my interest, and the main characters and their families are interesting.

Even though the author is an attorney and I am not, I still find his courtroom scenes rather unrealistic, even after taking poetic license into account.

Tim Campbell is a good but not great reader. I liked Stephen Hoye better. ( )

Judgment Day finds Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez, ex-spouses tackling their thorniest case yet. Called in at the last minute to try to stoop the execution of Nathan Fineman, a former mob lawyer convicted of murdering three people in the back room of Chinatown's notorious Golden Dragon restaurant. Mike and Rosie must race clock in a desperate attempt to prove their client's innocence. With only ten days to go and a wealth of forensic evidence pointing to Fineman's guilt, they're facing odds longer than the Pacific Coast Highway. And that's before they learn that Mike's father, a San Francisco cop who was one of the first officers at the scene on the night of the murders, may have been involved in a police cover-up.
As the plot hurtles toward its stunning conclusion, only one thing is clear, Judgment Day is fast approaching not just for Nate Fineman, but for Mike's father and the law firm of Fernandez and Daley as well. ( )
