Phew! Finally a good John Grisham book! After A Painted house and Skipping Christmas, I honestly had no hope for this one. But believe me, I loved it! The typical John Grisham mystery+law. A fantastic book for a journey, or a lazy Sunday. The story is rather simple. An old judge sends summons to his 2 sons to come home and discuss the estate. Neither is very fond of home, but both the sons go home nonetheless. However, Ray Atlee (the older of the 2 sons) reaches home only to find his old father dead. He finds a will which splits the estate in 2 parts, a fair enough will. The fun begins when Ray finds 3 million dollars CASH in the house! Dirty money? Marked notes? No idea. But MONEY! He is scared to share it with his younger brother Forrest, as he might kill himself with it....he's into drugs and all. Where do we go from here? Well, Ray must find out where the money came from....then protect it......from the IRS and the thugs.....can he do it? Do the good guys or bad guys find out? Well, let me leave you with this suspense!
I Highly recommend this book for all you Grisham fans out there! And those who havent tried John Grisham's book, try this one! It'll keep you hooked!
