After Dark
ByPublisher Description
Gone, But Not Forgotten rocketed Phillip Margolin into the select company of million-selling novelists. Here he displays again the same genius for best-selling suspense in another intricate, breathtaking thriller of multiple murder in the legal community of the Pacific Northwest.
Laura Rizzati, a law clerk for Oregon Supreme Court Justice Robert Griffen, is found slain late one night in the deserted courthouse. Her office is ransacked—but nothing seems to be missing. There are no suspects and no clues.
The following month Griffen himself is killed by a car bomb in the driveway of his Portland home. This time, though, there is a suspect: in a shocking turn of events, Abigail Griffen, star prosecutor in the Multnomah County District Attorney's office and estranged wife of Justice Griffen, is charged with first degree murder.
With the same gripping suspense that drove Gone, But Not Forgotten onto the bestseller lists, this is a complex legalthriller with a truly startling ending.

“I really enjoyed this book! The pacing was well-done, and I enjoyed the writing style! It was very interesting from the start, and the plot was not overly predictable. I will say, I predicted the twist ending very early on, but it was still enjoyable to see if I was actually right or not! I do not typically read anything involving the court system, so there were some processes I didn’t completely understand, but the book was well-written, so I understood the gist! Another small issue I had at the beginning was the dump of so many character introductions in the beginning. I feel like so many characters were introduced in such a short time period, it made it difficult to keep them straight for a bit. This struggle eventually went away for me, and I was able to really enjoy this book!!”
