The Intern

Summary: A young Harvard law student falls under the spell of a charismatic judge in this timely and thrilling novel about class, ambition, family and murder.

Madison Rivera lands the internship of a lifetime working for Judge Kathryn Conroy. But Madison has a secret that could destroy her career. Her troubled younger brother Danny has been arrested, and Conroy is the judge on his case. When Danny goes missing after accusing the judge of corruption, Madison’s quest for answers brings her deep into the judge’s glamorous world. Is Kathryn Conroy a mentor, a victim, or a criminal? Is she trying to help Madison or use her as a pawn? And why is somebody trying to kill her? As the two women circle each other in a dangerous cat-and-mouse game, will they save each other, or will betrayal leave one of them dead?

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

I’ve read all of Michele’s books (It’s Always The Husband, She Was The Quiet One, A Stranger on the Beach, and The Wife Who Knew Too Much) so when I got the Netgalley widget for The Intern, I didn’t hesitate on accepting it.

I love legal-ish stories. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a lawyer so while my adult self doesn’t want to do law in real life, I do like reading about it 🙂

What I Liked:

The cover. Perfection for the book.

Madison and Kathryn. Even though years separate them, at one time, in much different circumstances- they really and truly could have been a dream legal team. Because they both know what it’s like to have to pull yourself up and do what it takes.

The ending. I loved it.

Bottom line: Cat and mouse games, legal thriller, and a story that once it got going, it didn’t stop- all YASSSSS boxes from me!
