And a nice descriptive trip to Italy (however and unfortunately, at times the language interpreting portion within this trip has a casual tediousness to it). Backman (now Marco) is a potential target for intelligence agencies around the world due to him possessing software able to disarm various satellite intelligence systems.

While The Broker is not as tautly conceived as The Firm, Grisham inserts a number of complications, especially in the last few chapters, concentrating on Backman and his natural instincts toward survival, especially once the killer networks move into position. High school all-American Neely Crenshaw was probably the best quarterback ever to play for the legendary Messina Spartans. In the small city of Strattenburg, there are many lawyers, and though he’s only thirteen years old, Theo Boone thinks he’s one of them. The “Sparring Partners” are the Malloy brothers, Kirk and Rusty, two successful young lawyers who inherited a once prosperous firm when its founder, their father, was sent to prison. Torn between his conscience and the law, Theo will do whatever it takes to stand up for what is right.

John , in Grey Mountain, strongly opposes the destructive Mountain Top Removal coal mining practice. Welcome to John Grisham's fast pace, high-tech (not too technical) International, political, suspense/thriller. They start riots outside the courtroom, kill the frail husband of Jake’s assistant, wire Jake’s car with a bomb, and eventually burn his house down. Samantha’s new job takes her into the murky and dangerous world of coal mining, where laws are often broken, communities are divided, and the land itself is under attack.It's not a combination that will work and be of interest to every reader but I found it thoroughly enjoyable and charming at the same time as it was exciting. But as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequences—and isn’t half as easy as they’d imagined. One of the few people who even admitted to knowing him after he went to prison was his mother, who barely knew who she was herself, and perhaps one son who didn't hate him too much.
