I was really excited for the sequel of The Firm and it was an enjoyable read. I was originally plan to rate this book higher but

there was no twist or trademark Grisham sinister plot that made gasp and go wow! Because of that the story just felt kind of flat. It was just a hostage negotiation with no really kinks in the plan.

Definitely still worth the read for Grisham fans but curb expectations. It doesn’t live up to The Firm, my favorite of Grisham’s work.
