By Reason of Insanity - By Randy Singer

By Reason of Insanity was written by Randy Singer and published by Tyndale Fiction

Looking for a good courtroom drama that will keep you interested til the end? How about this book by Randy Singer? I haven't read many of John Grisham's books, but others have said Randy Singer is just as enjoyable a writer as he is.

Randy is a vetran trial attorney, so he knows his stuff.

By Reason of Insanity is a book about Catherine "Cat" O'Rouke, a newspaper reporter who, after a series of kidnappings and murders, begins to have visions about them. These visions provide so many details that she ends up becoming the main suspect in the serial murder investigation.

Enter Las Vegas lawyer Quin Newberg. He's a wonderful (though high priced) lawyer who has just made his name famous by specializing in insanity cases. Catherine just covered a story of him defending his sister in a murder trial involving the plea of insanityl Because there is no reason for Cat to have had these visions if she's not the killer, she hires Quin to help her plead her case as guilty by reason of insanity.

As the trial ensues, we are taken on a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. Will Catherine be found guilty of the serial murders? Is she really insane, or is she a cold blooded killer? Or is she really innocent and being framed, as she is inclined to believe.

For a great read, and a surprise ending, I recommend By Reason of Insanity.
