Medium pace to this book.
Lots of exciting parts and I was surprised by the ending a little bit.
I loved the story line! It was very creative!

This was such a fun read! I couldn’t stop once I had really gotten into it. There was a lot of potential for the killer to have  a great motive, but ultimately that part fell flat to me (and was a little corny tbh). Otherwise, I really enjoyed this book. I’m excited to read the other book in this series.

I couldn't put this one down!  Thirteen is a gripping mix of legal drama and psychological suspense with a clever twist
—the killer isn’t on trial; he’s on the jury
. Eddie Flynn, a former con artist turned lawyer, takes on a high-stakes murder case and uncovers a chilling plot led by a truly terrifying antagonist.

The pacing is tight, the courtroom scenes are vivid, and the twists kept me guessing. Eddie Flynn is a flawed but likeable character, and the killer’s perspective adds intrigue and amps up the tension.

I'd recommend this book to fans of Lee Child, Michael Connelly, or Harlan Coben.

Interesting premise, kinda meh execution.  Definitely an easy read that will keep your attention but the ending is lacking for me.

Very dark and very graphic deaths.  This is something I usually don’t like, and didn’t here either - but, I couldn’t put this down.  I had to know what happened next.   I’ll give the author credit, it’s a great story.
