The Last Trial by Scott Turow

To me, Scott Turow was one of those writers who set the standards in legal thrillers. The Last Trial does not measure up to his earlier books, at least to me.

I was bogged down in all the intricacies of perfecting a drug and the trials it has to go through. I did not find the characters very likable. I did not find Sandy Stern of old to be the Sandy Stern of earlier books.

At the halfway point, I just started skimming, and nothing ever made me stop to read again. Maybe it's me and not Turow.
