REVIEW BY A MAIN STORY CHARACTER: “Finished the book yesterday. Part of me wishes I had never read JUSTICE PLAYS ROULETTE; it brings back painful memories of the day I woke up to the reality of the “bastardized justice system.” Another part of me was glad to be reminded the justice system is made up of individuals, some great, others not so much. On the NOT so great side are self-serving attorneys, power seeking prosecutors, unethical law enforcement officers, & some bad apples in the FBI. But there are also MANY WHO ARE loyal to the IDEALS of the Justice System. Too bad they often appear not to be supported. A RIP-ROARING GOOD READ.”
