Only one notable book out on this, the last new release day before Christmas: TURNING ANGEL by Greg Iles. Behind that clunky title lies a thriller about a lawyer reluctantly representing a doctor friend accused of murdering and raping a high school girl (and, incidentally, lover). I have yet to read any work of Iles (though an uncracked hardcover of THE FOOTPRINTS OF GOD sits on my shelf), but his fans are legion, so those who turned out for the likes of BLOOD MEMORY and THE QUIET GAME will no doubt turn out for this as well.
