Book Beginning: Final Verdict by Sheldon Siegel

BOOK BEGINNINGS ON FRIDAYS
THANKS FOR JOINING ME ON FRIDAYS FOR BOOK BEGINNING FUN!

MY BOOK BEGINNING


Judge Elizabeth McDaniel is glaring at me over the top of her reading glasses.

-- Final Verdict by Sheldon Siegel. This is the fourth book in Siegel’s mystery series featuring criminal defense attorneys Mike Daley and Rosie Fernadez who, in Final Verdict, have divorced but are still working together.

I found the book on my TBR shelf and decided to indulge in a little read down memory lane. A legal thriller might not sound like a cozy Christmas read. But I get nostalgic at Christmastime, particularly for the years Hubby and I lived in San Francisco. I loved everything about Christmas time in San Francisco, like Irish coffees at Buena Vista cafĂ©, buying live crabs at Fisherman’s Warf, and the Guardsmen Christmas tree lot at Ft. Mason.

What’s your favorite Christmas city? There are many cities with a noteworthy Christmas vibe. San Francisco is my favorite. What’s yours?

YOUR BOOK BEGINNING




TIE IN: The Friday 56 hosted by Freda's Voice is a natural tie in with this event and there is a lot of cross over, so many people combine the two. The idea is to post a teaser from page 56 of the book you are reading and share a link to your post. Find details and the Linky for your Friday 56 post on Freda’s Voice.


MY FRIDAY 56

The irritation in her voice is evident when she says, "I've been a lawyer for almost twenty years and your case was the worst experience I've ever had. We want to explain some conditions before we'll take on your representation."


13 Days to Christmas!
