The Murder Rule

Summary: For fans of the compulsive psychological suspense of Ruth Ware and Tana French, a mother daughter story—one running from a horrible truth, and the other fighting to reveal it—that twists and turns in shocking ways, from the internationally bestselling author of The Scholar and The Ruin.

First Rule: Make them like you.

Second Rule: Make them need you.

Third Rule: Make them pay.

They think I’m a young, idealistic law student, that I’m passionate about reforming a corrupt and brutal system.

They think I’m working hard to impress them.

They think I’m here to save an innocent man on death row.

They’re wrong. I’m going to bury him.

 

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

After listening to What Happened to Nina?, I knew I wanted to read or listen to more books by Dervla McTiernan. I checked out Audible and decided to give The Murder Rule a try.

I adore legal thrillers and this one has a nice revenge angle.

 

What I liked:

The cover is great as is the wording across the cover.

Hannah. She was multi-layered. Was she someone to root for? To be scared of? Was her reasoning understandable? So much to unpack with her.

The interesting look into the legal system- the good, the bad, and the ugly sides.

 

Bottom line: While I did enjoy it, I actually enjoyed What Happened to Nina? more. But this was def a solid 3 stars!
