Chris Sinclair #1

Angel of Death

Rate this book
To the African-American community in San Antonio, Malachi Reese is a saint, a community leader, a man who feeds the hungry and houses the homeless. To San Antonio District Attorney Chris Sinclair, Reese is the Angel of a vicious killer possessed by the need for power and willing to do whatever it takes to gain it. Determined to see justice done, Sinclair overcomes incredible odds to see Reese convicted of murder and sentenced to Death Row.

But Malachi Reese has not been defeated. From Death Row, he threatens to destroy Sinclair, to take him to the very top and cast him back down. As a series of seemingly unrelated crimes begins, Sinclair feels the power of Reese descending upon him, and finds that enemies are allies and allies are enemies, and that truth and justice are much more shades of gray than an issue of Black and White.

If you're tired of those TV Courtroom Dramas but need that daily rush of "Court" drama. I suggest reading this book. It's about Chris Sinclair, San Antonio District Attorney and his dealings with the Angel of Death, Malachi Reese. A man who's ruthless, and unstoppable even from death row and threatening Sinclair. The suspense kept me on my toes. For those of you from San Antonio, will enjoy that it happens during "Fiesta". A Good Read! Planning on reading the other Chris Sinclair books.

Brandon gives the reader a glimpse of a District Attorney's world, his way of thinking in a Texas setting as the D.A. goes up against a black community leader who is extremely popular. Little snippets of Texas law are thrown into the mix and a glimpse of Death Row.

I read a First Edition from 1998 in which there were a couple of errors which I hope were all corrected in future editions. On page 86, the word should have read "exiting" and not "exciting". But we all use a popular word processing software these days that is very good at replacing words to make nonsense!

I will read this author again!

A gripping crime drama with a believably evil antagonist and just enough sex to make the love interest worthwhile
