Description
David Ellis speculates cynically on the nature of truth and legality in his intricately plotted and character-driven thrillers. While most revolve around legal proceedings, about which Ellis provides abundant and riveting detail, drawing on his years as a Chicago lawyer, many also explore themes of political corruption and terrorism. Ellis' plots are multilayered, tightly woven, and intelligent, full of spellbinding twists and turns. He takes risks with his writing, including using first person point of view and telling stories in reverse, but he makes it work with elegant prose and skillful storytelling.
