Good. But predictable. Not much action. The ethical issues covered were familiar and well known (at least to me).

The street lawyer
John Grisham

Everyone has this great concept of money. As a lawyer Michael went to law school thinking that was the best way to make money. 

He ended up being part of a hold up in his firm by a homeless man who called himself “mister”.  After that he had a mind change and decided to leave everything and become a street lawyer and work for almost nothing. Everyone that knows him thinks he has gone absolutely crazy. 

Grisham points out in this book that money is not the root of all happiness sometimes you can find happiness helping others!
