    About this audiobook

    “A master of plot and pacing—and one of those rare authors who can create a genuinely surprising ending.”

     — Lisa Scottoline

     

    “It takes a really crafty storyteller to put people on the edge of their seats and keep them there. Phillip Margolin does just that.”

    — Chicago Tribune

     

    The crew from the New York Times bestseller Executive Privilege is back in another pulse-racing thriller from Phillip Margolin. Fans of John Grisham, David Baldacci, James Patterson, and Scott Turow—as well as Margolin’s own immensely popular Amanda and Frank Jaffe books like Fugitive, Wild Justice, and Proof Positive—won’t be able to put down Supreme Justice until the last spellbinding page.

      Wow! If this is "not his best," I need to go back and read some of his previous books. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and it kept me guessing until the end. The storyline moves quickly and the characters are believable although a lot braver than I would be if found in any of these situations.
    • 3/5
      Supreme Justice has a well placed plot with an inventive twist. Margolin's characters are always well crafted, plausible, and sympathetic. I am not so certain that this plot is as plausible as the players. My concern is that Margolin is slipping down the Patterson path with a serial cast, short chapters, and certain sequels. My primary criticism of Supreme Justice is the set up for the next episode. Margolin gets great credit for not brand naming co-writers.Many of Margolin's early works were edge of the seat, can't put it down quality fiction. Supreme Justice is more of an oh, here's another one.
    • 4/5
      Brad Miller returns as clerk to a Supreme Court Justice. While he is hoping for a return to normalcy, corruption reaches the court and he is asked to quietly look into it with the help of Dana Cutler. As they investigate they find the corruption reaches deep into Washington power circles and their lives become in danger. While not his best, Supreme Justice is a very good political thriller. It has a strong storyline and great characters.
    • 5/5
      Edge of my seat to figure out what was going on the whole time. Little advice. You have to pay attention to every character because they all play a role!
    • 3/5
      The three main characters from "Executive Privilege," private investigator Dana Cutler, FBI Agent Keith Evans, and attorney Brad Miller, are back in Supreme Justice. Brad is now working for Supreme Court Justice Felicia Moss. One of the important cases of the session is one regarding a woman charged with killing her lover twice. The first case was thrown out after a jury was selected but the second time, Sarah Woodruff was convicted and put on death row. She is trying to get a new trial based on evidence the government kept out of the trial. Justice Moss wants to give the matter more consideration but one of the justices becomes enraged that she's even considering it. Soon after that, someone attempts to kill her and she's saved by Brad.

      There are a number of plots and subplots going on that all merge and get tied together at the end. In this case the ending left me hanging a bit. Overall the book was a fast and fun read, especially because I'm a fan of legal based thrillers. While this book can be read as a standalone, there are references to events in the first book. I like the characters and plan to read the next book in the series, Capitol Murder.
    • 1/5
      A conspiracy surrounding state secrets threatens the life of a Supreme Court Justice and her clerk (the star of an earlier book by Margolin). Aside from the ludicrous premise at the center—a conspiracy involving whether or not the Supreme Court will grant cert on a particular case—the factual minutiae are surprisingly accurate. Too bad they’re delivered, assembly-line style, every couple of pages. Infodumps are hard!
    • 2/5
      Fast read; before you can really be too bothered you're just about finished. Nothing makes sense, practically nothing is plausible. It really is an insult. But. Slightly sympathetic characters, slightly interesting locale.
