About this listen

They watched Danilo Silva for days before they finally grabbed him. He was living alone, a quiet life on a shady street in Brazil; a simple life in a modest home, certainly not one of luxury. Certainly no evidence of the fortune they thought he had stolen. He was much thinner and his face had been altered. He spoke a different language, and spoke it very well. But Danilo had a past with many chapters.

Four years earlier he had been Patrick Lanigan, a young partner in a prominent Biloxi law firm. He had a pretty wife, a new daughter, and a bright future. Then one cold winter night Patrick was trapped in a burning car and died a horrible death. When he was buried his casket held nothing more than his ashes. From a short distance away, Patrick watched his own burial. Then he fled. Six weeks later, a fortune was stolen from his ex-law firm's offshore account. And Patrick fled some more. But they found him.

loved listening to this Grisham thriller. was thoroughly entertained for hours and then completely let down in the last chapter. a very flat ending and finished feeling disappointed which was a shame.

very well read with plenty of accents and voices to keep the actor busy!

Great story let down at the end

As ever, the master of the legal thriller puts together a twisting tale of brilliance and swerves. Recommended for any Grisham fans

Another great piece from Grisham
