Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Hundreds of feet below Manhattan, a treacherous tunnel maze is inhabited by the sandhogs, teams of workers who are rebuilding New York City's deteriorating water supply system. Their dark and dangerous world turns deadly when a catastrophic explosion rips through Water Tunnel #3, sending shock waves that are felt throughout the city and inside the courtroom where Alexandra Cooper is dead-set on nailing young businessman Brendan Quillian for the murder of his wealthy wife. The blast sends Alex's case in a shattering new direction -- and pulls her and detectives Mike Chapman and Mercer Wallace underground to dig up ancient rivalries and homicidal secrets that may pull Alex in too deep....
Brimming with Linda Fairstein's trademark blend of brilliant detective work, cutting edge forensics, and electrifying legal drama, Bad Blood melds two distinctive and riveting New York domains with seamless authenticity and nerve-jangling suspense.

A very good well-rounded book. Can't wait for the subsequent 1, or 5 or 6.

Arrived on time and in excellent condition. Have not read the book yet, but have read many other "Alexandra Cooper" books by Linda Fairstein and have enjoyed them very much.

I have enjoyed the other stories by the author (Entombed in particular) but thought this one was really not very good. I wondered if the author was just trying to meet a deadline as opposed to writing a story she wanted to tell. :-(

There's no substiute for first-hand knowledge of one's subject, and Linda Fairstein is no exception. Her Alexandra Cooper mysteries are among my favorite, due in no small part to her former work as the chief of the Sex Crimes Unit for the Manhattan DA's office. Bad Blood is the ninth in the series, and the author's doing an amazing job of keeping the character interesting, and the plots pleasingly twisted. The jumping-off point for this novel is the revelation of a key witness's affair with the defendant in a murder trial, which paints the prosecution's case into a corner. The plot then literally explodes, uncovering secrets that I won't spoil here. This reminded me of another author with firsthand knowledge: Patricia Gussin, an MD with a background in family medicine and medical research. Her new book, Twisted Justice, is on par with Fairstein's work. Enjoy both!

This book was really not worth reading. I stuck with it because of the money I spent to own it. That happens to me a lot lately. Eight to ten, to twelve dollars a PAPERBACK and they turn out to be crap.
But hey, when you're out of new books, you might pick up any-ole-thing at the market. That's me, desperate for reading material. It's a forty mile round trip to town and a library. Woeisme.
