Robert Rotenberg's ""Old City Hall"" has everything a legal thriller should have, and more: absolutely engaging characters, a tight, taut, and believable plot, a heart-quickening pace, and, best of all, some of the finest writing I've read in years. This one has winner written all over it." --Nelson DeMille, author of "The Gate House"

"Robert Rotenberg's ""Old"""" City Hall"" is one of the best books I've read in ten years. I devoured it in two sittings. Rotenberg is a criminal defense attorney, defending lowlifes and celebrities alike in Toronto, and he really knows his clients. His characters are stunningly good. They're real people. His Toronto settings make this most multicultrual city in North America come alive. He writes with assurance and panache. He has a series of characters who may well become a classic. He even has a sense of humor. This is one of those novels where you only need to read the first chapter to be swept away. If "Old"" City Hall" doesn't win an Edgar, I'll trade in my pen for a fishing rod..." --Douglas Preston, author of "The Monster of Florence"
