The Trial has begun. It is what Freud might have called a WISH FULFILLMENT scenario.

I just hope that the biggest villain of the book, Rogue Lawyer's vicious hater of a wife, doesn't dind a way to louse this up.

Such wry humor, as Rogue Lawyer's ex-wife goes after the last few shreds of his custody rights for ever seeing their young son.

Yes, a fascinating plot (with details I won't divulge, for fear of "spoiling.") I do find it remarkable how Grisham tells a believable story, as usual.

Only this time, in this particular book, there is pervasive wry humor. Quite a neat trick!

The funniest opportunity imaginable for playing golf at night, in an exclusive club.

Weirdly, this roguish book is so funny.

The Rogue Lawyer is defending a Death Row prisoner, counting down the minutes until his execution. Meanwhile the proud gangster is fire bombing one nearby courthouse after another.

Weirdly entertaining!
