The Firm
by John Grisham
It doesn’t take law firm Bendini, Lambert & Locke long to entice one of Harvard Law’s top five students to consider a job offer despite the firm being based in Memphis, Tennessee. Mitchell Y. McDeere is young, impressionable, hungry, recently married, and up to the ears - $23,00 - in student loan debt. To Royce McKnight (managing partner), Oliver Lambert (senior partner), and Lamar Quin (not yet made partner), McDeere is the perfect fit for their firm. Willing to do whatever it takes to make money, McDeere racks up the billable hours and spends more time at the office than at home.
It all changes one day when McDeere is having lunch at Lansky’s Deli. Special Agent Wayne Tarrance of the FBI approaches him and gives McDeere three pieces of advice and an offer he soon discovers he can’t ignore.
Other than a short Christmas novella, I’ve not had the pleasure of reading any of John Grisham’s books before. I had seen the movie over 20 years ago, and when I was surprised with a gifted ARC of Grisham’s sequel (The Firm #2), I knew I had to go back and read about McDeere’s work at The Firm. I loved this book and have added Grisham to my auto-read author list. Needless to say, I can’t wait to read The Exchange.
