I enjoyed a few of Grisham's older novels. The story kept me attentive. Enjoyed the twists and couldn't wait to hear how the "Brethren" were going to be dealt with by ole Teddy. I did find the ending to be somewhat lackluster, left me thinking, that's all?!?! A good quick vacation read. As an added bonus,the first chapter of a "Painted House" is included in this edition.

I wouldn't say that this is classic Grisham. It lacks a lot of the soul and passion you can expect from his characters. Also, the atmosphere was never really a character like a lot of his books based in the South. The plot was very involved and thought out. So much so, that I wasn't sure the plot points were going to converge well at the beginning. However, they did pretty well. Overall, a decent read but not thrilling!
