Query: What happened to Grisham's touch?

The last 2 books I've read (this and The Last Juror) have been unrealisticly slow. This novel starts off with a bang, but then it seems like 300 pages of an Italian history book with a mix of a Romance novel. If you don't care to read hundreds of pages about Bologna, then take a pass on this novel. The ending is interesting, but very sub-par for a great author.
