It was good being reunited with Adam Green. He's now passed his pupilage and is a junior barrister. So, he's climbing up the ranks as it were. It's interesting to see his life moving onwards and upwards and what he has to deal with and investigate at each stage.
This time Adam is wrapped up in a mysterious case involving a murder mixed with the world of tv in the form of pointing the finger at celebrity chef. Sebastian Brooks.

Whilst being an entertaining book, it also takes you into the world of tv and the courtrooms, which is interesting.

The pace is good. I would say it probably is better to read The Trial by Rob Rinder first because of the way the books flow into each other. The books are a compelling read.

Highly entertaining, compelling, a mystery that kept me guessing
Liked it . Due to health issues cannot will write a proper review at a later time

Many thanks to the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are mineA more extensive review will follow

Thank you to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

One of the UK's favourite television presenters dies live on her tv programme in front of millions of viewers. And the programmes chef is imprisoned for murder. Enter Adam Green, who is now a junior barrister. Adam is determined to give the chef the best defence he is able to, even if the jury has already decided he is guilty, along with the entire nation.

This is the second novel from this author featuring Adam Green, and this is hoping up to be a great series to keep going back to. Adam is a brilliant character, and he makes the story so easy to read. I really enjoy this authors writing style, which always has me racing through the pages. I love the way the author makes you feel a part of the legal world, and it is brilliant to read from the side of a character that is not a police officer. I love the writing style, and the quick pace of the story. I really enjoyed the conversations with Adam and his mum, and she adds some great humour to the story. 5 stars!!

Following on from the first book, this book continues with Adam Green, the junior barrister who is a very likeable character. A quick read and well written.

A fun, cosy murder mystery with some great characters.

Overall, a quick easy read.

Thank you for the advanced reader copy.

Really gripping story, loved seeing behind the scenes in court & law offices.

Excellent story & great characters - will definitely read more from Mr Rinder

I read The Trial by Rob Rinder, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and so I was looking forward to reading The Suspect. Rob Rinder has once again gifted the world with a gripping plot, well-rounded characters and a well-paced read. Highly recommend this fabulous author!

Thank you for letting me read this, I didn’t enjoy this as much as the first, but overall it’s a good book.

This is the first book I have read by this author and I loved it. Adam Green is a junior barrister who ends up defending a famous TV chef accused of murdering TV presenter Jessica Holby by causing her to have an anaphylactic shock live on air.

I found the whole case really interesting and found myself imagining certain tv stars as the characters. I did wonder if he had ‘loosely based them on people in the public eye. I really enjoyed the investigative aspect of the story but did struggle a bit with the language of the courts and found that quite heavy at the beginning, but it was fascinating reading about how the courts worked. A really well paced book that kept me wanting to read on. I’ll definitely be reading more by this author.

Daytime tv royalty is murdered live on tv, there is only one suspect, it is obvious whodunit ...but this is showbiz darling, so maybe things are seldom what they seem! With an old Woman stealing gin from low-cost supermarkets, a man flashing in the cheese aisle at Waiteose, menacing Eastern European ganglords, and an overbearing Jewish mother...this is a proper page turner of a book...read it!

I hadn’t read the 1st book before this - I have now picked it up and I’m delighted. I love a courtroom drama and with Rinder’s experience here you feel the insight in all the writings. Loved it. Can we have a TV series please.

Found it hard to connect with the characters but the story flows well and is well written. I hadn't read the first book or even realised this was a follow on but I didn't feel it mattered too much,

It was grand. If you want a bit of a mystery and some behind the scenes of a tv program, you might enjoy. But really there is not much intrigue. I never really cared much for the characters, and you can see the author trying to get us to emphasise with them.

This was great, and in the very busy crowd of "celebrity authors", this is definitely one of the better ones. It's intriguing, it has perfect pace, it's so cleverly written, the story flows so well. A really good rea, thoroughly enjoyable.

Having read and enjoyed The Trial I was looking forward to following the career of protagonist Adam. Rob Rinder once again presents a gripping plot with characters that are developing. Well-paced and a highly recommended read.

I was really pleasantly surprised by this book. I never usually expect much from 'celeb' authors and hadn't read Rob Rinder's debut novel, but this was a really great read. I was hooked from the get go and would definitely read more from him.

The Suspect is an impressive debut that showcases Robert Rinder’s talent as both a storyteller and legal expert. It’s a smart, engaging, and thrilling read that will appeal to fans of legal dramas and mystery novels alike.

I loved the first book so was excited to read the follow up, it felt a bit too similar to the first book at times which meant I struggled to get into it at times, but the case Adam is working on is interesting enough to keep you wanting to finish.

Having really enjoyed Rob Rinder's debut novel, I was curious to see how he would follow it up.

So jumped into the pages of The Suspect and was happy to see it was set at the same law firm and that Adam was our leading character again.

And he gets called up to help with big case in the media, while also being involved in one that included a moral dilemma, which actually raises some important questions.

I enjoyed seeing how Adam was now coping with life now he was past his pupillage.

And the phone calls from his mother are hilarious.

This was an easy to read and highly enjoyable story. I'm loving the recurring characters and highly curious what this author will write next.

Thank you to Penguin and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.

I love Adam! A beautifully bright guy who puts a smile on my face whenever I read anything from his point of view. Another book that kept me guessing, I thought I might have an inkling throughout but I was proven wrong. Wonderfully written and keeps you engaged. Read in less than 12 hours so it’s definitely good!
