ANHOW Review of Books: "Firm Ambitions" by Michael A. Kahn

Genre: Legal mystery
Published: 1994 by Onyx Fiction

This book is firm proof that you can't judge a book by its cover. It has a very attractive cover. I hate the book. It is a legal mystery and I found that I did not care that the victim had been killed because he was immensely unlikeable, I did not care that any number of possible suspects had been falsely accused - they were unlikeable twits that deserved some trouble just for being so stupid. I did not like the lawyer (the main character) although I did like her mom.

So, when the reader cares not about the murder, the victim or the suspects, he should stop reading, which I did after just 60 pages. I give this book an "F."
