I just met the mole, the source, the informant - the Whistler. It's an interesting read, even though it has a predictable plot. The portrayal of several strong women characters, which is not the typical Grisham-style, sparked me and now, I'm all set for 'The Judge's List'

"You can't trust anybody these days." Oh JoHelen, trust me, I know how it feels!

Not as powerful as the previous John Grisham book that I've read. I also didn't think I'd be a legal thriller person.

This book was ok. It was very procedural and didn't have many twists or turns.

Just didn't grab me deeply.
