Query: Just Awful!

Grisham has finally sold out completely. A man of his intelligence could write this shallow waste of time in a day, and he probably did just that. If a book was ever written simply to profit on the author's name (or what's left of it) this is it. The plot is preachy and predictable, the characters are unremarkable and poorly developed, and the ending is incredibly flat. What's worse; a book written by a lawyer is packed with legal errors, from ethics to procedure. Grisham seems somewhat apologetic in his afterword, and he should be for stamping his name on this thoughtless wonder. Save your cash and spend it on an author who's still hungry enough to put some effort into his writing. Grisham's interests now seem to lie in other realms.
