2.0

Very strong storyline and it’s an enjoyable read!

That being said, the characters are all caricatures. Any emotional scene feels sterile and forced. I never felt what the characters felt. As a reader, I didn’t care about them and there was no effort to make me care. Probably won’t seek out another Grisham novel.
