About this listen

Attorney Daniel Mendoza returns in The Mendoza Memo with his trusty private investigator, Pamela Williams.

This time, the two are in London, working on a royalty case involving a miracle drug licensed from Arizona. When a witness mysteriously falls ill during a deposition, it is only the beginning of bizarre events happening in London, Arizona, and other places that all seem to be connected to the lawsuit.

Putting themselves in jeopardy, Daniel and his legal team must race against time and solve the case. But are the strange events related to the investigation merely coincidence, or is there more to the case than meets the eye?

I am working my way through these books as and when the author sends me them. I am thoroughly engaged with his writing style and legal thriller. It is interesting learning more about the American legal system - you can tell it is very well researched. It is not dry though and it works as a whole.

The narration really suits.

I love the narration of Richard McLarn. He brings out the action and characters.

Daniel and his associates are back, defending a company accused of cheating their clients out of royalty payments. Trouble starts when a man, giving evidence, suddenly falls over and dies in front of them. We go to Arizona to London. Brilliant twists and turns, secrets and lies, deceit, betrayal, and mistrust.
Brilliant thriller

This third book in the excellent Daniel Mendoza series is quite possibly the best so far. Murders and cover ups abound as a major enquiry in to royalties paid for a cancer treatment cause plenty of headaches for Daniel and his team. Highly recommended. Richard McLarn's narration is great.
I was kindly given a copy of the book by the author and leave this honest review. Highly recommended.

The Mendoza Memo is the 3rd book in the Daniel Mendoza Thrillers series by Daniel Maldonado. Bringing a new pharmaceutical successfully to market involves many parties, from basic scientists to pharmaceutical executives and marketing companies. It also involves a tremendous amount of money and is extremely competitive. The Mendoza law firm is hired to defend a company in a case involving disputes over royalties owed to other stakeholders during the development and marketing of a new cancer drug. The case gets even more complicated when witnesses in the case start to die - or is it murder? As a scientist in the pharmaceutical field, I enjoyed this book on many levels. It’s a solid legal thriller that has enough twists and turns to keep the reader totally riveted. It also put me right back into the lab and conference rooms of my former profession and reminds me why I’m glad to be retired. The writing is outstanding and the characters continue to develop as believable people and members of the legal team. The narration by Richard McLarn is wonderful. His outstanding performance brought the characters and story to life and adds enjoyment to the experience of listening to the book. I highly recommend this book and the series. I received a free audiobook code from the author for this honest review.

Very engaging legal thriller!

I enjoy legal thrillers and this one certainly started well: a company was being prosecuted for failing to pay all of the royalties it owed to another. But whilst preparing for court, it became obvious that several relevant files were missing from the thousands of documents requested to fully comprehend what had been going on. Then the deaths started.

As with actual litigation the action takes place over months, if not years and much of the story is told through conversation, and with numerous protagonists from different locations, I had to backtrack on occasion to find out their relevance to each other. The final denouement was a surprise although, by that time, the deaths seemed to have become almost irrelevant.
The narrator, did a good job of providing the characters with individual voices but his presentation was somewhat downbeat, a little fragmented, making it, for this reader, hard to concentrate, although he certainly breathed some life into otherwise undistinguished protagonists.

Not a bad book even if there was an over abundance of detail on irrelevant matters ( like the central character, Mendoza, taking a bath) but too little about the ongoing case itself to really involve me in the case itself although it certainly had potential.

My thanks to the right's holder for freely gifting me a complimentary copy of The Mendoza Memo at my request. It was Intriguing, but not a book I'd recommended.k
