Court of Killers by William Bernhardt
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Quite an entertaining story, but not quite as up to the mark as the first book in the series, The Last Chance Lawyer.
Four men are found baked to death in an oven in an old bakery which is owned by the mayoress of the city. She is brought up on charges and Dan Pike and his firm are hired to defend her.
Its a bit of a dog's breakfast actually and the actual killer is found out in just the last few pages without an actual build up or suspicion of who it might be.
