British Excellence

The characters of this book, even though not the happiest lot, were so well developed that I felt as if I knew them. Ms. Fraser is able to write in such a way that you befriend each one of them, wishing that you could help them out of their triangular dilemma: Anthony loves Rachel who loves Leo who loves Anthony. Certainly not a happy ending, but a realistic and practical one for all involved. My favorite character was Rachel's secretary, Felicity, hopelessly zany and unorganized, but so likeable. I also was interested in the intriguing British court system which is so unlike ours. This book keeps your interest high from cover to cover and is well worth reading.

entertaining British legal tale

Everyone Knows that barrister Leo Davis is a superstar inside the courtroom. Most people, who know Leo outside the court, think he is a charmer who has led a perfect life. The ambitious Leo wants to become a member of the Queen's Counsel. However rumors soon surface that Leo has some sexual skeletons in his closet. Apparently, word among the judges is that Leo likes young men, which is enough to doom his application as sexual preference matters. Leo is stunned when he learns that his application is nearly dead. He has behaved exemplary using discretion to hide his proclivity except perhaps his desire for barrister Anthony Cross. Leo decides to find a perfect female to marry. He chooses solicitor Rachel Dean, who has her own crosses to bear. Now a romantic triangle has formed that still might preclude Leo from making it to the Queen's Counsel. JUDICIAL WHISPERS is an entertaining legal tale that centers on the relationships between individuals working at various layers of the British legal system. The story is loaded with gossip and innuendoes shared over the water cooler and teapot. The three lead protagonists feel genuine as their motives and demons propel them deeper into their triangular relationship. Fans who enjoy an insider look at a judicial system will fully relish this novel although the British legal terms might seem more like a foreign language to the American audience that will want Caro Fraser's previous books released stateside.
