Review of 'Bear is Broken: A Leo Maxwell Mystery (Leo Maxwell Mysteries)' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
This is a legal mystery/thriller, establishing a complex character with a dark background and doubtful future. The author is clearly competent in the law, and at least an average writer.
The story and structure were decent at the beginning, but the writing slipped as the book continued. By the midpoint, I found the plot threads too convoluted, and the final reveal was unsatisfying. The title clearly refers to his brother, and I kept reading to find a nugget of information to connect the two. Never happened.
Title seems to indicate this is the start of a series - I will likely not read any further.
