New York Times best-selling author John Lescroart presents an ambitious thriller featuring San Francisco defense attorney Dismas Hardy.

“Betrayal is provocative…a tour de force of a legal thriller.” (The Providence Journal)

Dismas Hardy agrees to take an appeal to overturn the murder conviction of National Guard reservist Evan Scholler. Scholler had plenty of reasons for revenge - but as Dismas delves into the case, he begins to uncover a terrible truth that drops him right into the complicated world of government conspiracy, assassination, and betrayal...

Would you try another book from John Lescroart and/or David Colacci?

yes

If you’ve listened to books by John Lescroart before, how does this one compare?

Other stories had more believable characters and Dismas played a bigger role which I enjoyed more. Have read them all to this book. Plan to continue the series. I hope this is not the beginning of a new style.

Any additional comments?

Narration was superb, as usual.

Not my favorite Lescroart

Any additional comments?

This book is alright, but as a Dismas Hardy book, it falls short. Why? Because Dismas Hardy is absent for the majority of the novel. As much as I like the Hardy series, I felt short changed, as though I was sold a mediocre novel in a Dismas Hardy package: keep listening, Dismas Hardy will make an appearance soon. By the time he did, I had forgotten I was expecting him.

Where is Dismas Hardy?

Everything about this book is brilliant!!! Every chapter builds the momentum, further legitimizing the books premise, leaving its listener anxious for more. It delivers, to the very end.

BRILLIANT!!!!!

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The narrator was fine. It was the story that was a disappointing surprise.

What was most disappointing about John Lescroart’s story?

It felt like a bait and switch because most of the book takes place without Hardy and Glitzky. It takes place in Iraq and Redwood City with a whole trial to get through with a different lawyer.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Narrator was fine.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Strong disappointment

Any additional comments?

It should have been noted somewhere that Hardy does a small cameo at the beginning and then shows up again for the last chapters.

I've been reading this series in order and every time I finish I think this is the best one yet. A large part of the story this time his background that the regular characters aren't involved in, it was still gripping story. The finsl resolution chilling and satisfying.

another great another great Dismas Hardy book

With "Betrayal," John Lescroart departs a bit from his ongoing San Francisco series of novels. For one thing, part of the action takes place -- as a flashback -- in Iraq, unveiling some of the sobering corruption taking place there at our government's expense. Secondly, much of the subsequent action takes place not in San Francisco, but down the Peninsula in Redwood City. We still have Lescroart's perennial protagonists -- best friends Dismus Hardy and Abe Glitsky, defense attorney and cop -- working together to discover the hidden machinations that sent an innocent man to prison. But this time they don't enter center stage until midway through the story. Lescroart definitely did his homework for this novel, delving deep beyond his legal and law-enforcement expertise into the ugly underbelly of the Iraq war and the unscrupulous contractors capitalizing on it. But, as always, he also delves deep into the hearts and minds of his characters, making them real to us, and making us care about them. Also, as always, David Colacci does a magnificent job narrating this audiobook. He has a wide range of voices and accents to draw upon, clearly distinguishing the characters from each other. I recommend this audiobook to anybody who enjoys legal thrillers with heart.

The best Lescroart yet

Lescroarts's series of Dismas Hardy-Abe Glitzky novels is one of the most beautifully sustained works in this entire genre of legal thrillers. If you have read a few of them, you know that the combination of these three plus David Colacci's narration is unfailingly entertaining. In this book Lescroarts addresses the Middle East chaos in a way that involves a new attorney for much of the book, a character who is less interesting than Dismas and Abe. However, the story is very well told, and I have a hard time imagining any reader putting it down. It is funny, which is a relief in this genre, which tends toward the plodding and detail-ridden, particularly the legal details. Lescroarts, however, generally requires his heroes to solve the murder (or appear to do so) while the trial or appeal is happening. This style tends to leaven the weight of legality which can bog down other authors. The end of the book is a surprising twist which I will not give away, as Lescroarts earns the reader's full involvement. He continues telling us about developments in the private lives of Hardy and Glitzky, which makes them much more interesting and real than the heroes who are frozen in time by the author's need to crank out more books. If you have never read one of these, you are in for a treat. If you know the series, you will not be disappointed by this one. Keep 'em coming, John. And, particularly, don't let anyone other than David Colacci narrate them.

John Lescroarts does the Middle East.
