On the Record

Summary: Excellent Read !!
Review: Being a Mississippi native and enjoying reading about corruption in the state's capital city, ON THE RECORD was a superbly enjoyable read. With the author's description of characters and what is happening, you will feel as if you are in the middle of the action. Suspence, along with surprise fills this thriller to the end. You will not want to put it down. It left me wanting to know more.....Hope there's a sequal!

Summary: Suspense To The End
Review: I found this novel to be a good read. I read it the same week that I read John Grisham's King of Torts and I found this novel to hold my attention in a similar manner. The story line concerns government corruption and influence peddling in the Attorney General's office. I found myself to be rooting for the success of the main character in her efforts to expose the corruption while maintaining her job, her reputation, and. possibly her life. As the plot twists and turns, the reader is repeatedly hit with new revelations and unexpected relationships between the characters.

This book carries the mystery to its final pages and the success or failure of the main character's efforts remains in doubt right up to the end.

I highly recommend this book and am anxiously awaiting the next!

Summary: Excitement and Intrigue in Mississippi
Review: I was hooked after the first chapter and could not put it down until it was finished. It was fun reading about places that I've been. It was also a clever mystery. I can't wait for a second book. After reading this book, you will never look at car dealer advertising the same way. It's an easy read -- A great beach book!

Summary: Legal thriller/page turner
Review: It's really good - I couldn't put it down! Maureen Lewis, who works in the Mississippi Attorney General's office, is like a pit bull after shady car dealers. And just when you (and Maureen) think the story's all wrapped up, the author uncovers another layer of corruption. The character of Ashleigh Dunn is wonderfully despicable, a woman you'll love to hate; she's out to get Maureen's job and Maureen in general. Give it a whirl, you won't regret it.

Summary: Ode to Mississippi
Review: Joe Lee's first novel, On the Record, offers an insiders view of one our country's greatest assests... Mississippi grit. His characters abrasivly rub one another raw, yet the end result is scrumpious!

As a native Mississippian myself, I firmly believe that Joe Lee's witty tale tells more about the inside working of political power and the personal stakes involved in playing the game. Beyond layers of deception surrounding his heroic female lead, Joe Lee uncovers an unfettered human response to career women, love-hate relationships, fright and flight.

Indeed, On the Record is a keeper, and Joe Lee is a writer the publishing industry should keep up with.

Summary: I read it in a single sitting
Review: On the Record is a page turner, and I literally couldn't put it down. I read the legal thriller in a single sitting because I couldn't wait to find out what would happen to the characters. You really care about them after about a page--that doesn't happen every time you pick up a contemporary novel. Highly recommended.
