About this listen
Worldwide best-seller John Grisham will keep you on the edge of your seat with his most suspenseful thriller yet.
America's greatest storyteller brings us a new masterpiece of legal courage and gripping suspense - and his finest heroine since The Pelican Brief.
Donovan Gray is ruthless and fearless. Just the kind of lawyer you need, deep in small-town Appalachia.
Samantha Kofer is a world away from her former life at New York's biggest law firm. If she is going to survive in coal country, she needs to start learning fast.
Because as Donovan knows only too well, the mountains have their own laws. And standing up for the truth means putting your life on the line....

I've been a fan of John Grisham for many years, but, apart from the main lawyer being female, there's just nothing new in Gray Mountain. I'm afraid I found it boring and struggled through to chapter 14 - but I'm off in search of a bit more excitement. Sorry John!Is it just me?

Female lead a mistake

I don’t know if it because the lead character is a woman but, at times, I felt we were in a Nora Roberts novel.
The plot is a good one and I wanted to dig deeper into the cases against the coal companies but these appeared secondary to the relationships of the female lawyer.
More Nora Roberts than Grisham

Where does Gray Mountain rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I'd rate this one a good to very goodWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Gray Mountain?
I knew from the 'net that the big coal companies were criminals, so this encouraged me to research further - they are worse than the book, if that is possible!Which scene did you most enjoy?
The opening few chapters were excellent. The style is almost documentary through this part.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Maybe could have been stronger for some of the characters, but overall quite acceptableAny additional comments?
With such a weak ending that left me wishing for more, I wonder if this is the first and will have a sequel or even a series - not sure if John Grisham had ever done this?Could this be a first?

If you could sum up Gray Mountain in three words, what would they be?
Captivating, emotional, gripping.What was one of the most memorable moments of Gray Mountain?
I don't want to say as I'll spoil the story, but when the narrator read the page I couldn't believe what she was saying! It's about half way through.What does Catherine Taber bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
This was my first audio book. At first Catherine's pace seemed slow, but after a chapter or two it actually was perfect for the setting and made listening a real, and relaxed, pleasure.If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
I don't know.Any additional comments?
This is one of Grisham's more 'small town' stories that really draws you in and makes you feel attached to the place. It's a great story too!The usual Grisham brilliance, nicely told.
