- In Good Faith (Joe Dillard Series)

I chose this rating, because I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I am a fan of legal thrillers and this one is a great story. I don't like to say what I don't like in a story, as I don't like to give away anything. But I read this book in a day, every time I wanted to put it down, something else came up and I couldn't. Anyone who likes legal thrillers will definitely like this one. Even those who like evil thrillers would like it also.

Such a riveting story, it has so many twists and turns, then the understanding of just how close to the truth the corruption in the Political & Judicial system s really are. Found myself looking forward to book #2 in the series before I had finished #1. If you need to get up early the next day,, don't n start the book late at night LOL . Excellent book.

Well written.good character development. Settinhg plot kept reader on thedge Ogden of iOS seat . I look forward to another read.

One of the best books I've read in a long time. I love his characters, especially Dillard. one thing that I really liked about the book was the other cases going on. Really hard to put down.

He seems to write from what he knows. Makes it such a seamless saga. I have a new favorite author

Pratt has done it again. A great story teller. I read it cover to cover in two days. I highly recommend Pratt.

My book that I bought "In Good Faith" by James Pratt is an amazing read. However, as I was turning the pages most of them were falling out!! I know it's not Amazon's fault but the manufacturer should be told. Thank you.I'd appreciate anything you could do so that I may receive new book...Truly.

I like the way this author writes not an over whelming number of characters and a really good storyline could not put it down.

This was nowhere near as good as the first in this series for me and if this had been the first I'd read by him I doubt I'd bother with any of the others. There were a LOT of irritating mistakes peppered throughout which really annoyed me and if I hadn't already read him I'd have jacked it in.He used words in strange ways at times but my biggest annoyance is the habit of dropping of from a sentence when he uses couple, and he uses couple a LOT of times....like with couple TBI lab experts, couple minutes, a couple complaints....very tiresome.Then suspect as opposed to suspicious, crimes scenes and not crime, maybe and not may be, look over and not overlook. A terrible one was Charley Chaplain when I'm sure Charlie Chaplin was meant and then ajar used in place of a jar and magnanimous in place of goodness' knows what but that was certainly not the word he was grasping for. Pretty bad and way sloppier than his first book.There were apostrophe mistakes, too, discernible was written most strangely as discern-able, this sentence meant nothing-"Lester's hearing wouldn't be held until the at least one thirty"....I guess a word was added there as opposed to being left out for variation !I really liked some of the new characters we were introduced to although there was also a great deal of dishonesty and corruption going on throughout which became quite wearing. It didn't seem like anyone came out of it well with good character intact. I wasn't sure why a sheriff referred to Joe as Brother Dillard near the end, either-that was most peculiar.I may try the third but I'll definitely not be in any rush to do so, I have to say. A shame as the first in the series was a 5 star read for me.

I really enjoyed this book. I admit it first caught my eye because of the coincidence of a shared surname but the reviews were encouraging and so I purchased! I do enjoy a good legal/courtroom drama and was a well thought through and plotted story. This story does not have the grittiness of Joseph Teller's tales but they are just as good as anything by Steve Martini, especially his earlier books.The only real mystery, to me, was the very final page where the author explains that this is a self published book and he'd appreciate a review on Amazon to help promote the books. I am more than happy to do so, my puzzle is why no published has not taken up his books and promoting them in bookshops? They are certainly good enough. I have also read book #1 and have the third ready to read.

I hate to pour cold water on all the positive reviews. I like the author's style of writing but cannot understand why he had to include so much in the book about his wife's cancer. As a sufferer myself i use reading as a means of escape and to be suddenly thrust back into painful reality was completely unnecessary. Until you suffer with this awful disease you cannot imagine the horrible emotions it produces. Either the author doesnt understand them or if he has had a loved one with cancer, he has been unable to put it across in print. Also it adds nothing to the story.The other thing I didnt like was the supernatural element to the book which was a bit unbelievable. I shall download the next book but hope that cancer and the occult do not get a mention.

I enjoyed this book, despite the (few) errors. It also touched an area of my life that I would have preferred it not to. Joes wife has an illness exactly the same as I have, and it brought back so many memories I was in tears, but I don't think that was the author's intention!The main person in the book (Joe) is a likable man, and it's easy to identify with his problems. All in all I enjoyed this book and didn't want to put it down.

Another captivating readScott Pratt has this uncanny knack of getting the characters to jump out at you .. its like your watching a film not reading a book
