"Legal Tender is a Legal Thriller, yes. It's one of these
wonderful reading that keep the reading on the edge of
the seat the whole time. It was through this book that
I begun to love this genre, and I have to say, the
amazing author Lisa Scottoline is much, much better than
the most famous one, John Grisham. From beginning to end.
Believe me."
