have to disagree with shutter island. saw that one coming. I would agree more with presumed innocent. I thought of another one. Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow. ... (I won't say why in public--a spoiler) so it says a lot that I still wanted to finish it. I had the same experience with Presumed Innocent where on page 87 I knew exactly who, how and why and if I hadn't had to finish it because it was for a book club I would have quit. I've never read ... Prayers sent!
Scott Turow is very Grisham-like. Presumed Innocent may be a good choice. If she's into police procedural kinds of mysteries, I've heard good things about Child44 and it's high on my list. It's a murder mystery set in the Soviet Union during the Stalin years. The Girl with ... ... wel. Hangt ervan af hoeveel dikke Engelstalige turven ertussen zullen zitten.

3. A Kiss Before Dying – Ira Levin (4.0+)
4. The Talen ... ... Island by Dennis Lehane - that one absolutely floored me!
Read it before the Scorsese movie comes out...
Also Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow - a courtroom thriller with a surprise or two along the way.
And of course my favourite novel of recent times - The Raw Shark Texts ... ... , pretty good
The Third Policeman by Flann O'Brien, read it years ago, but because of Lost, read it again. Fabulous.

My parents forbade certain books on their bookshelves, which just meant I read them late at night. They included Presumed Innocent and Clan of the Cave Bear. I was also in the habit of flipping through my mom's romance novels to find the "naughty bits" but they were written in such ...
