"Great fantasy stuff."
1 stars"

Great fantasy stuff. Up there in league with Stephen Kings latest, phen king 22.11.63. We should be grateful we have such a great fantasy writer in our midst. Ambush- Yes, the family were ambushed.

"Worst comic I have ever read."
1 stars"

Read Trial by ambush and was stunned that Joe Karam thinks Robin Bain did the murders even though there is no evidence linking him to any of the 4 separate murder scenes. Joe seems to think Robin took off all his bloody clothes and that David very kindly washed them for him. Check out all the evidence HERE http://davidbain.counterspin.co.nz/

"Very Disappointing"
1 stars"

Other authors have provided a far better account of this case. Extremely one-eyed. Overlooks the facts of the case to produce a scenario blaming a victim. Waste of time reading, but demonstrates the need for a law change to protect those who can no longer speak for themselves.

"More of the same old rubbish"
1 stars"

If you want to read about someone being unfairly slandered in their death, then this is the book for you. If you read the two previous books, then don't expect anything new. The only trial by ambush was the Defence's inclusion of a copier representative at the last minute in the retrial, who ended up providing false testimony.

"Very disappointing"
1 stars"

Had been waiting a long time for this book to come out. Had hoped to finally learn something new, and discover how it was that a second jury found David bain innocent, very disappointed, nothing new at all.

"A complete waste of money."
1 stars"

Why was I surprised that a man who had a huge financial interest in persuading me that David Bain was not guilty could not only not write a balanced book but was stupid enough to think I would believe him. A complete waste of money.

"Fascinating - essential reading"
5 stars"

I've read this book. It gives a clear, concise and fascinating account of the evidence given at the two trials, and highlights very clearly the shortcomings of the police investigation. Whether you believe Joe Karam or not, Trial by Ambush is essential reading for those interested in a fair and just legal system.

"Classify as Fiction"
1 stars"

Preposterous fantasy from Joe Karam who tries and fails to convince the reader of Robin Bains guilt. Only for true Karam followers.

"Discover the Truth"
5 stars"

This book goes to the heart of the Bain case, thoroughly exposes all the evidence that was ignored and which pointed to Robin as the killer. There are a group that fight Karam to hide the truth, even to misinforming you about this book. Read it for yourself. Make up your own mind.

"Very informative read" Purchased on Mighty Ape

Excellent book. It has a number of high resolution photos over which there can be no dispute. I disagree with most of the above reviews. This book has been very well researched references all of the information. I invite all to read it and decide on the evidence, as presented mostly by the Crown witnesses, who you think is guilty. You may just be surprised.
