With Prejudice - Robin Peguero

 With Prejudice - Robin Peguero

She read

Publication Date:  May 17, 2022

I really don’t want to say too much about the plot except it involves the trial of a man accused of rape and murder.  It is an interesting approach to a legal thriller.  We learn not only the machinations of the prosecution and the defense, but also get insight into the life experiences (and prejudices) brought to a trial by individual jurors, police, attorneys, witnesses.  

The author has a good sense of today’s societal, racial and cultural divides and there is even some humor injected.  There are a lot of characters and that could be  confusing. It is only near the end when some of that confusion is clarified. I could say more about that, but it might be considered a spoiler. 

This was a fast read that I enjoyed.

Thank you to #netgalley and #grandcentralpublishing for the DRC
