Product Description
New York Times Bestselling Author When prosecutor Vicki Allegretti arrives at a rowhouse to meet a confidential informant, she finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time - and is almost shot to death. She barely escapes with her life, but cannot save the two others gunned down before her disbelieving eyes. As Vicki tries to figure out how a routine meeting on a minor case became a double homicide, she finds herself in the cross-hairs of a conspiracy as powerful as it is relentless.

Scottoline does it again March 17, 2008
For Personal Pickup
Devil's Corner is a slow build to multiple murders and the suprising ending. The women a front an center and the dialogue crisp and accurate.
 I laughed, I cried laughing and bought the rest of her books August 1, 2007
If you are from a big city, you will like her, if you are from Philly, you will LOVE her.
This book is best one I've read so far.
 DUMB! July 14, 2007

This has to be the DUMBEST book I've ever read - or I should say scanned. Oy - was it suppose to be a mystery? Or a bi-racial lesbian love story! Either way, it was DUMB. The heroine, Vicki was TSTL - too stupid to live! What part of "a white woman does not go into a black neighborhood to survail drug dealer do you NOT understand?" The whole plot was SO convoluted I couldn't make head or tail out of it. BUT make no mistake, Vicki thought her new friend was really, really beautiful! Hey, after the 20th time - I GOT IT! No more Scottoline for me - EVER!
Good, but not Scottoline's best (but she's written more than a dozen books so a bunch of them are not her "best"...) June 15, 2007
Scottoline steps away from Bennie Rosatto and her crew of female lawyers and takes up with a new layer - Vicki Allegretti, a 5'2" Asst. U.S. Attorney in Philadelphia. So, Scottoline remains on familiar ground with an attractve female Italian-American, young, up-and-coming attorney.
This one probably has the most potential of any of Scottoline's books of being made into a movie. Essentially, it's and odd couple female buddy book, and it works with the snappy banter back and forth between the two "buddies." The ending is a bit too saccharin, but it doesn't ruin a fun story.
A quick, fun summer read for this reviewer. I give this one a grade of "B".
Good read May 12, 2007

I usually listen to rather than read books these days. I did enjoy this one and it kept my interest.
