Book Review Blurb: The Substitution Order by Martin Clark

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Kevin’s trials and tribulations were over-the-top but also oddly real – a tightrope walk that allowed for hilarity and heartbreak in equal measure and which made for a very compelling read. I LOVED the twist at the end – I figured something was coming, but had no idea exactly what, and that made the reveal all the more enjoyable. I also really liked the minutiae of the legal process. I’m an attorney but was never a courtroom attorney, but I quite enjoyed the word play and detail and emphasis on how the seemingly small details played into some of the larger implications and outcomes of the story. It was clever and fresh and a very engaging read. I’m definitely going to keep my eye out for more from Martin Clark!
