Book Review: A Killer's Alibi by William L. Myers, Jr.

​Mick McFarland gets the client of a lifetime, but not in a good way.

​Defense attorney Mick McFarland has made a name for himself as a defendant's best chance, but when reputed crime boss Jimmy "Nutzo" Nunzio hires him with an offer he can't refuse, Mick finds himself trying a case without all the facts; hardly any, in fact. Meanwhile, his wife Piper and legal associate take on a new innocence project; a woman who spent her entire life in prison for the grisly murder of her father.

​As facts about each case unfold, lines are crossed like the Walt Whitman bridge, and it's up to Mick and his team to balance the truths of their cases and their clients' entitlement to justice.

What I liked:

William L. Myers, Jr. weaves another tapestry of intrigue as his characters deal with life and death legal matters. The breadcrumbs are expertly scattered throughout the book, resulting in a brilliant twist at the end. In this tale, the devil flashes a convincing and congenial smile.

What I didn't like:

​I had a hard time feeling a connection with the main character. I felt like there was too much back story that I should've known when starting to read. I read volume #2 in the series, An Engineered Injustice, but Mick seemed to me as a minor character. Perhaps the character development I sought was found in volume #1, A Criminal Defense, in which Mick is the primary attorney on the case.

Overall, I enjoyed A Killer's Alibi, but not to the same degree as I liked An Engineered Injustice. I gave it a solid three stars and wish more success to William L. Myers, Jr. in his future writing and legal adventures.
