The Lawyer

by Alex Forster

Senior Associate, David Mayson, is a rising star and on track for partnership in the global law firm Knight, Blackmore & Emmerington LLP. His biggest client, EuroSkybus, is pitching to win a multi-billion dollar deal - the largest in aviation history. The competition is Baring Aviation Group and they will do anything to win this deal. In the world of high octane corporate law, all gloves are off. In a web of corporate espionage, Mayson is faced with a major dilemma: either pay a hundred million dollar bribe and risk getting caught; or lose his client, partnership and possibly his career. Sometimes the law can be your own worst enemy.
No one said being a corporate lawyer was easy...

[CB Motsett · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another little gem from a little known author who can really write well. The plot is excellent, the suspense runs throughout the book, start to finish. A great book.

Good story

This was a pretty good story, and I did enjoy it although it is wordy in several places. I think there is still a requirement for a good editor.
