rwarner 's review for:

The Racketeer by John Grisham
4.0

Man, it's hard to put a Grisham novel down, and this is definitely one of those! The present tense voice he's started using is a little odd, and some of the plot stretches credibility, but the novel twists and turns and jumps and is a really gripping read. Grisham has such a great formula: he starts from a lawyer, throws in some scenario you've never thought of, and spins a great yarn. If you like his other stuff, you'll gobble this one, too.
