I would have a read a Supreme Court thriller with a Black woman protagonist regardless…

The fact that this was written by someone who actually had many of the skills displayed by Avery Keene (the protagonist) and presumably had been to some of these real places (the Court, the Oval Office, etc) made it that much more exciting.

Where protagonists in thrillers often jump the shark and become super heroes, here it works, because Abrams IS basically a real life super hero. And President of Earth.
