Some critics are calling the Texas-based lawyer Mark Gimenez 'the next Grisham'-but I think that's far less than fair. This, his fifth novel and the second featuring attorney A. Scott Fenney, shows he's now better than the one-time master of the American courtroom drama ... This is one of the best legal thrillers since Scott Turow's Presumed Innocent in 1987 ... Superb. Daily Mail A gripping read with unexpected twists that ranks with anything Grisham has done in years. The Times Brilliant writing, masterful plot and all the thrill of the courtroom in one. Grisham, step aside. City AM Gimenez writes smart vernacular dialogue, hip and street-wise, with a nice line in social commentary, and his plotting leaves the over-rated John Grisham in his rear-vision mirror. The Australian Unputdownable for those who love the genre. Times of India Gimenez's latest novel Accused is classic Grisham at his best. Gisborne Herald A great read... Gimenez is a thriller writer of quality. Oamuru Mail If you enjoy suspense and a fast-paced courtroom drama, this one's for you. Foschini Club Magazine This mix of family values, sex, sleaze and intrigue holds together in a gripping read with unexpected twists that ranks with anything Grisham has done in years The Times Offers the reader everything they could want from a thriller, and is a very satisfying read. Civilian Reader For my money, Grisham has grown stale over the past five years while Gimenez has gone from strength to strength...this is one of the best legal thrillers since Scott Turow's Presumed Innocent Daily Mail
