Some points are laboured in this book, Grisham could reduce the amount of times he tells his readers certain things. Found this slightly boring. Also, the book is set in 1990 so felt a bit dated but still quite an easy, entertaining and intriguing read.

John Grisham is an excellent storyteller! I appreciate Grisham’s use of fictional characters to explore moral dilemmas. Good read, highly recommend.
