Thanks, Na...JK/Julie, great to see you in the lair! Thanks, Nancy, for bringing Julie to us today.<br /><br />This series sounds very powerful! Congratulations on the back-to-back releases!<br /><br />As a former lawyer I'm always a sucker for themes of justice. Not sure if I have a favourite lawyer story but I can thoroughly recommend a BBC series called Life on Mars and later, Ashes to Ashes, about present day very PC cops being transported back to the bad old days of the '70s and '80s. <br /><br />While I appreciate the reasons for a lot of police procedure and the rules of evidence, it is rather nice to see the good guys go outside the law to get the bad guys. There's a lot more to those series, but they really are an excellent study in character and conflict. I recommend them as long as you're not too PC in your thinking!Christine Wellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14260589566405262159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-1953846432977881072010-11-09T18:47:30.207-05:002010-11-09T18:47:30.207-05:00Thanks, Barbara!

I haven't had a chance to read any of the new J.K. Beck series, but I'm looking forward to it.<br />I can't think of any lawyer books I've read recently, but I really enjoy lawyer television shows.
