ReviewsGripping, intricate, and full of heart, Full Disclosure is a bold debut by the former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada. Novelist Beverley McLachlin is a force to be reckoned with., Totally compelling: McLachlin brings her wit and intelligence--and unrivalled experience--to this courtroom drama, which brilliantly illuminates the games lawyers play and the risks of wrong choices. The main character, Jilly Truitt, is a woman I want to meet again., For page-turning legal thrillers, it's hard to do better than this one, and not just because it's by the ultimate insider: the recently retired chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada., McLachlin puts her experience on the Court to good use, writing a taut legal thriller with great twists and turns that will keep readers guessing to the very end., We know Beverley McLachlin as a pioneer -- the first woman to serve as Canada's Chief Justice. But now we'll know her for something else entirely: gripping crime fiction. . . . Full Disclosure is a well-crafted page-turner in the vein of international bestsellers like Sarah Vaughan's Anatomy of a Scandal , and is packed with courtroom drama, intrigue, plot twists, and fascinating details about our criminal justice system. Written in an accessible voice, with a fast-moving narrative, this is beach, cabin and airplane reading at its best., McLachlin has the sure hand of a much more experienced author. . . . Jilly's the perfect legal protagonist--smart, suspicious and driven., What we have here is the inquiring mind of the lawyer and jurist, now bold new writer. . . . Beverley McLachlin has created something real and visceral. Hats off, former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, and all rise for what we hope will be the encore.
