I started this book wondering if it was worth it, or if was it just another attorney story. In my opinion, it is one of the best reads ever.

Most of the story takes place in the court room which can get somewhat redundant but it does involve solving the mystery so it keeps the plot interesting.

Legal thrillers are my favorite genre of books. Through this author’s writing I envisioned the characters clearly, but admit to being surprised by the ending. Most authors find a way to uncover the real culprit. Not so with this book. I also enjoyed the touches of humor. Am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

Sarah's story.

I truly loved this story and each character was perfect. I called this Sarah's story because she like so many, have become addicted to meds prescribed by physicians, without following up with them. Nate was able to use his past, because his wife who died from addiction. This helped him to move forward working , so the jury would understand why Hank did for his friend.

Really enjoyed this book! Good
characters and the story was well-paced. Didn't want to put it down! It was obvious that Michael Stagg has a background as a trial lawyer, yet he writes in a way that those of us with no legal background can enjoy it.

Going to go get Book 2 now!

This book, by this author is heart-stopping and hilarious. Oh, it’s all serious as a man is dead and our lawyer is defending the accused. Socially conscious about heroin and fentanyl on one end and sharing humor with us readers on the other. The trial is serious and the outcome almost certainly death. Read the book, it will get to you.

This is my first Michael Stagg book, I dug in after checking the reviews, which were very helpful. For readers who enjoy Sheldon Siegel, Robin James, and the late Scott Pratt, Mr. Stagg's writing style won't disappoint. The detail, the humanity of Nate, the narrator, and the sheer personableness of the characters combine to make a great book. Also, the resolution isn't predictable, which adds a good dose of ongoing suspense. I've found a new favorite author. If you are looking for an exciting, unpredictable, well-written legal thriller, you'll be very happy with Lethal Defense.
