DESCRIPTION:
With any luck, they won’t even have to enter a courtroom! It almost seems too good to be true. More accurately, it stumbles in. Once David sobers up and comes to grips with the fact that he’s suddenly unemployed, any job—even one with Finley & Figg—looks okay to him. The partners at Finley & Figg—all two of them—often refer to themselves as “a boutique law firm.” Boutique, as in chic, selective, and prosperous. With their new associate on board, F&F is ready to tackle a really big case, a case that could make the partners rich without requiring them to actually practice much law. An extremely popular drug, Krayoxx, the number one cholesterol reducer for the dangerously overweight, produced by Varrick Labs, a giant pharmaceutical company with annual sales of $25 billion, has recently come under fire after several patients taking it have suffered heart attacks. And it is.The Litigators is a tremendously entertaining romp, filled with the kind of courtroom strat
PRAISE FOR THE CONFESSION “Brilliant Superb the kind of grab-a-reader-by-the-shoulders suspense story that demands to be inhaled as quickly as possible.” —Washington Post “One of Grisham’s best efforts in many seasons a rousing return to his dexterous good-guy-faces-corrupt-system storytelling.” —People magazine “Packed with tension, legal roadblocks, and shocking revelations.” —USA Today

Having Fun Again? Eric Wilson Early on in Grisham's career, he wrote with fire. He went off against the ills of the legal and political systems, kicked greed between the legs, and did it all with some memorable, believable characters. His success was not surprising. Then, he stumbled. He lost the fire. I barely hung on through books like "The Brethren" and "The Broker." But last year's "The Confession" showed him kindling some new heat over a subject he is passionate about, and I applauded it, even if it was a bit stale at times."The Litigators" is the first Grisham book I've had fun reading in a long time. I get the feeling he had fun writing this one. We. Thoroughly enjoyable Kindle Customer I purchased this book in Kindle format and had a great deal of fun with both the story and the quirky characters. I don't think I've ever read another author who can present and track a more fascinating set of characters. The law details can get a bit long and dry at times, but they support the premise well and never get in the way of the strong characterizations. We have a young lawyer who hates his suffocating job and the mega-firm that employs him to the point of "snapping" in the elevator one morning and giving it all up to join (accidentally) a ramshackle ambulance-chasing firm that he stumbles upon consisting of two quar. "A winner from John Grisham" according to Ann Werner. I noticed there were some single star reviews, and for the life of me, I can't figure out why anyone would give this story a low rating. Different strokes, I guess. For me, this was a great read. Maybe because I know what it's like to dread going to a job I hate, I completely understand walking away from something that pays well but literally makes you feel sick. So when David Zinc walked away from his big-time paycheck and grinding 80 hour work week, I couldn't help but think yeah! As far as the other characters in the book go, I liked them. Yes, they were a bit quirky, but that's what made them fun.As a writer, I envisioned
