《正义沉睡之时》（While Justice Sleeps）是斯泰西·艾布拉姆斯创作的一部构思巧妙、情节复杂的法律惊悚小说。它引人入胜，绝对会让你全程紧张不已。小说中有些法律术语和文字表达方式让我难以理解。它与其他一般的惊悚小说截然不同，这使得阅读体验略显拖沓。
The story revolves around Supreme Court Justice Howard Wynn and an unexpected new development which leaves his law clerk, Avery Keene, in the centre of it all. This was a fast-paced novel that gave me significantly more than what was generally anticipated, and I mean this in the 世界上最好的 way possible. Avery is fascinating and furthermore relatable as a protagonist. Abrams brings a reader into a character’s feelings, even if they are a generally private. I discovered this way of writing to be amazingly natural and fascinating. With each twist, Avery’s sentiments were palpable and furthermore sensible. There were moments when I had to remind myself that this was a fiction.
This novel has 一切, child-parent relationship, loyalties to colleagues, attraction, courtroom drama, murder, even chess references…it was ALL there. A similar sort of style flowed with the setting also. I found myself enchanted while envisioning the inside of the Oval Office, as well as the realistic familiarity of a late night get together at Kramer’s.
Moreover, there was a 主要 association with India which I was NOT anticipating. As a Desi myself, I was thrilled about this surprise that wasn’t referenced in any synopsis or public statement that I had read. Stacey Abrams, knows precisely the thing this reader was searching for.
斯泰西·艾布拉姆斯的《正义沉睡时》简直太适合当下了。它既是一部令人毛骨悚然的惊悚小说，又兼具丰富的层次感和深刻的人性关怀。总而言之，我相信即使读完最后一页，你也会久久难忘。
