Tento autor prináša do sveta detektívnej fikcie jedinečnú perspektívu vďaka svojim dlhoročným skúsenostiam ako obhajca a sudca. Jeho diela majstrovsky preplietajú napínavé zápletky s hlbokým porozumením ľudskej psychiky a motivácií. V jeho príbehoch sa často stretávame s komplikovanými zločinmi, ktoré odrážajú jeho znalosť právneho systému a ľudskej povahy. Okrem klasických detektívok sa venuje aj tzv. „faktom“, kde spája skutočné udalosti s vražednými tajomstvami, často s témami blízkymi jeho domovskému mestu.
