One of my favorite genres is the legal thriller. I’ve read such authors as John Grisham and Randy Singer for years, and have enjoyed their books. However, I’ve never had the opportunity to read anything by Lis Wiehl. It’s just never crossed my path.
Recently, I had the chance to read Wiehl’s newest book, A Matter Of Trust. I found it to be very captivating and hard to put down. I really enjoyed it.
The story is about a single mother named Mia Quinn, who has stepped back into the legal world after the death of her husband, in order to support her two children. After the murder of a colleague and friend of Quinn’s, she is thrust into the investigation full force, attempting to solve the crime before anything else happens.
With the pressures of raising two kids as a single parent, struggling under the financial pressures left behind by her husband, and dealing with the politics and problems of the workplace, Quinn is forced to face some hard realities, both as a professional and as a mother.
Besides the investigation of her friend’s death, a subplot of cyber-bullying twists and turns through the story, and the lives of her kids.
With so much going on in the story, A Matter Of Trust keeps your attention until the finish. And it left me with a desire to read more of Wiehl’s works. I will be seeking out another one to read in the very near future.
All in all, I really enjoyed A Matter Of Trust. If you like reading legal fiction, I recommend that you pick up a copy. It’s a story worth reading, with a lot of positive and encouraging elements. You’ll be glad you did!
