In creating them, he never resorts to stereotypes. Turow's characters, regardless of where they turn up, are alive. The novel contains significant action in both arenas. He is at home in the courtroom and, without being too invasive and overly sensational, in the bedroom. With an equally sure hand, he can also illuminate the often-messy interpersonal embroilment of the steamiest extramarital affair.

Turow, being an accomplished and practicing trial lawyer, can effortlessly steer the reader through the most intricate judicial morass. Reversible Errors, like those earlier works, transcends its genre. If this is not his best work, it is certainly his most intricate and complex. And, that is saying a lot since his previous five legal thrillers have been translated into more than twenty languages and have sold more than 25 million copies worldwide. Scott Turow's new novel, Reversible Errors, may be his best effort to date.
