Summary

The classic legal thriller and huge bestseller from master of the genre John Grisham.

David Zinc has it all: Big firm, big salary, life in the lawyer's fast lane.

Until the day he snaps and throws it all away.

Leaving the world of corporate law far behind, he talks himself into a new job with Finley & Figg. A self-styled 'boutique' firm with only two partners, Oscar Finley and Wally Figg are ambulance-chasing street lawyers who hustle nickel-and-dime cases, dreaming of landing the big win.

For all his Harvard Law Degree and five years with Chicago's top firm, Zinc has never entered a courtroom, never helped a client who really needed a lawyer, never handled a gun.

All that is about to change.

An absolute delight

I had not previously read any Grisham books but was so inspired by the enthusiasm shown by participants on Radio 4's "A good read" to this particular title that I decided it was time to take a look. But instead went for the audible format (great whilst driving or walking the dogs).



You will immediately warm to this set of shambolic characters - and you will enjoy every minute of the story - which is exceptionally well read. Can thoroughly recommend. Have now just listened to my 2nd Grisham audible - that was great too...

endearing and gripping

This is unusually for Grisham, a heartwarming story. But still as gripping with unexpected twists and turns as you would expect from such a story spinner. The reading is also well done and makes the complicated legal terms easy on the ear.

A legal roller-coaster

I'm a fan of Grisham's legal thrillers and I really enjoyed this one as I couldn't predict the twists and turns there would be next as an ill-assorted threesome of lawyers take on a big pharmaceutical company with bottomless wallets. It's real David and Goliath tussle with many humourous interludes interleaved with the author's hall-mark taughtly written court-room scenes. There's a strong cast of memorable characters and I was sorry when the book ended.

Guess what happens...

I like Grisham's work normally and like a bit of legal intrigue but I guessed what was going to happen far too early and although the words were good and reading fine I was glad to get it finished.

Good Read

Another great John Grisham book. The usual court room drama and plot but this one has some funny characters as well. Excellent. Give it a go!

Street lawyers have never been so much fun

Grisham maintains his normal high standards in this frolic through the, sometimes seedy, world of the street lawyer, painting an interesting picture of the willingness to bend ethics standards in order to chase the dream of money, apllying these standards liberally, if not equally, to all levels of the profession.

My only real criticism is the reader's continued, somewhat grating, pronunciation of certain words.

A little slow..

It wasn't so slow that I gave up listening, but I'm quite determined that way. It wasn't great. I have heard better books by this author.

as expected

usual stuff for Mr Grisham. Colourful characters, with plausible back stories and a lead that you root for from the beginning
