Summary: Gripping
Review: This was a great read. I was immediately drawn into the plot and the book held my interest throughout. The securities fraud and the SEC involvement were realistic and there also was a tantalizing sub-plot that ultimately revealed itself. The villains were deliciously heinous and one had a wonderfully nefarious name (Vince Sliney) that would have made Dickens proud. The "good guys" grew on me so that by the end, I really felt for them. Insights into court reporting added a nice touch. The compelling story built tension as the pace quickened and the ending did not disappoint. This is a book I looked forward to reading each day.

Summary: Unlikely Adversaries
Review: What a page-turner. The best kind of book you want to read if you have a four-hour airline flight or a weekend at the beach. The characters are well-developed -- they jump off the pages. I was casting the movie version as I was reading it. Mr. Bloom's knowledge of the legal system and SEC inner-workings make this novel believable. The book is an imaginative, lively conflict between the good guys and the bad guys. It was hard to believe that the whole scenario happened in a short period of time. I recommend it highly, a work in the genre of John Grisham.
