Grisham’s writing clearly comes through, even in a non courtroom drama. The story is about a kid from a village is South Sudan who gets scouted for a college team and becomes a breakout star when he finally starts playing. I’m not a bit sports fan myself, and Grisham uses a lot of sports terms. It’s a testament to his writing that he’s able to commentate on multiple games while still keeping me interested.
The reason I’m giving it only 3 stars is because the twist in part III. It felt forced, like trying to get an emotional response, and then dragged on for the final chapters. There’s some resolve at the end, but there’s still open ended questions that don’t warrant a sequel.
