They watched Danilo Silva for days before they finally grabbed him. He was living alone, a quiet life on a shady street in Brazil; a simple life in a modest home, certainly not one of luxury. Certainly no evidence of the fortune they thought he had stolen. He was much thinner and his face had been altered. He spoke a different language, and spoke it very well.But Danilo ha...more

I do own Grisham books, but only because family members keep buying them for me on birthday's and xmas's. I smile politely and thank them, wishing they would include the receipt. I have read this, and i don't recommend it unless you are 10 years old and want to start reading adult fiction. Dull, dull, dull. How this man is a best-selling writer is reflection of today's society's IQ.

LOVED this book - so smart and witty and edge-of-your-seat reading with lots of twists and turns. I'm torn about giving this 4 or 5 stars because the ending of this book taunts me in an intriguing and enjoyably annoying way...

I finished a book.

Q.10
When I read this book, I expected some happy ending, because Patric was unhappy for his own life. But when he was Danilo, he was happy and he felt free even though chasing. Anyway, he solved his problems. At last he had to get money and love. Patric might think he would get everything, too. But the author did not that. He lost everything. He loved Eva(his girl friend), but Eva disappeared with his money. He trusted her. That was very shocked to me. I didn't predict this las...more

I'll give this one a grudging "check it out" rating. It's the tale of a lawyer, Patrick Lanigan, who had faked his death and then swiped ninety million dollars that his law firm had gathered in a settlement. As the book opens, it is four years later and Patrick is discovered. The rest of the book details how he attempts to escape the civil and criminal cases against him, intertwined with the details of how he pulled off the scam in the first place. Like the other Grisham novels I've read, the ch...more

I'm a big fan of John Grisham. He's arguably one of the best story-tellers in the 20th/21st century. But from time to time, he makes something that's more like a bad Hollywood movie than a good Grisham novel. Maybe because he's had a lot of his books adapted in Hollywood, I'm not sure. This particular novel is one of those. You can always expect Mr. Grisham to be a good writer, to create genuine characters and vivid descriptions. The same goes for this book, the writing's good, it's standard Gri...more

Disappointing book. It has the requisite guilty pleasure moments of bad guys getting their comeuppances and a smart main character bobbing and weaving his way around the system, but Grisham also makes an attempt at a morality play and this portion of the book never seems fully fleshed out.

The fun and strength of the book comes from the detailed telling of Patrick Lanigan faking his death and stealing a large sum of money in one fell swoop. The telling is mostly done through Lanigan recounting h...more

Sometimes, John Grisham gives me 'forced' endings. Sometimes, I would imagine him going:

or

"I'm already near my page limit, let me just squeeze everything in the last remaining pages."

Unfortunately, Grisham's 1997 "The Partner" pulls together these elements among an only marginally interesting core of characters, all revolving around the capture and peculiar justice visited upon a presumed-dead partner in a Biloxi, Mississippi law firm.

"The Partner" focuses on Patrick Lanigan, an attorney who fakes his own death, heists $90 million from his law firm, and skips the country. After four years on the run, he's caught, and returned to the States presumably to face the consequences for his actions, yet he returns too prepared. Grisham works hard to make Lanigan into a sympathetic character, but the result leaves the reader among a bevy of characters that range from the irrelevant to the downright unpleasant, woven together by a narrative that slides too often into the tedious. One could almost argue that Grisham, amid writing "The Partner," realized Lanigan's one-dimensional, only marginally likable nature, and supplanted the novel with other, more sympathetic characters to compensate.

As the novel's central character, Lanigan is the one on whom the entire story pivots. We must find a reason to care about what happens to him, yet the plot reveals a so thoroughly calculated character that we discover little of what happens to be much of a surprise. As a result, the character study becomes secondary to an exposition of the mechanics of a grand scam, with the drama and conflict virtually non-existent. The rest of "The Partner" borders on filler; attorneys talking to attorneys, investigators probing suspects, with seemingly every character holding a limitless supply of "secret files" on everyone else. While the material fills in the necessary blanks, the reader realizes there was no moral epiphany, no shocking surprise, no resonating arc that allows the "blanks" to make sense. Blanks, to be sure, are filled - but that's all.

Contrasted against stories with much more richly drawn characters, such as Grisham's classic "The Firm," "The Partner" leaves the reader barely interested in how its main character acts. Most of Lanigan's life decisions are viewed only in retrospect, his conflicts viewed in the narrative as having been resolved outside the timespan of the novel's reality. We see only end-game. A more compelling version of "The Partner" could have been written in a story chronicling the meticulous planning of his original disappearance, and the detail behind the motivations that drove it. In a way, "The Partner" is a story about a novel not written.

Those who have read "The Partner" surely know its final page twist that presumably serves as the ultimate ironic end game for Lanigan's character. We won't go into that ending here, but it is safe to say that very ending is so departed from the way Grisham has drawn the particular characters involved that the shock of the twist is quickly offset by the realization of its own absurdity.

"The Partner" isn't a wholly bad Grisham novel; it contains the requisite complex plotting and the attention to legal details that pay homage to his tradition in the genre. The disappointment comes in the realization that, once the final page is turned, the drama, tension, and intrigue that have made his prior works so compelling are simply non-existent. With its focus on a story told almost entirely in retrospect if not flashback, and its odd last-page twist, "The Partner" cannot help but be termed a disappointment.

Having done this, he has staged his own death and assumed a new identity in Brazil. This has the further advantage of getting him away from his wife who, apart from her body, leaves everything else to be desired.

In Brazil he is finally tracked down by people working for those he had defrauded. Even under extreme torture he does not reveal where the money...more

In this, one of his relatively forgettable characters previously faked his own death and then stole $90 million from the law firm of which he was partner and left to start a new life in Brazil.

It opens with private investigators finally locating him after spending four years and several million dollars of the ripped-off clients' money to search for him. He goes out for his daily jog and...more

He had me at The Firm. Since then, I devoured every book of his. I would excitedly wait for a new book to come out and would be first in line to buy one. But for some reason, I missed this book.

The protagonist is a disillusioned lawyer who went through some hoops to get himself seemingly entangled in a situation which as a reader I knew right away he would extract himself out of admirably. No surprise there.

In a typical Grisham manner, the story is engaging, fast-paced, and clever. Not necessa...more

"To Tell The Truth?"

Quite a few years ago, there was a television show called "To Tell the Truth" in which a celebrity panel, egged on by a celebrity moderator, would try to guess which of three guest panelists, when quizzed about their lives and circumstances, would turn out to be the actual named person.

Quite a few years ago, there was a television show called "To Tell the Truth" in which a celebrity panel, egged on by a celebrity moderator, would try to guess which of three guest panelists, when quizzed about their lives and circumstances, would turn out to be the actual named person. The game always ended in the command "Will the real 'John Doe' please stand up", at which point our suspense was relieved and we all got to congratulate or commiserate on our own candidate of choice.

And so with our now famous author, sometimes we feel like saying "Will the real John Grisham please stand up." In Partner, this is not (to our minds, thankfully) the slow-paced dramatist of book one, A Time to Kill, or book five, The Chamber, the latter of which we predicted would never be a movie (wrong!) for its dullness and lack of intrigue (right!). Nor is this the social commentator proselytizing in The Rainmaker (wife abuse is bad) or The Runaway Jury (smoking is bad), although at least these two gave us moderately satisfying page-turners. Nope -- the good news is that our clever creator of Pelican Brief, The Client, and The Firm is back, with all the complexities of plot, action and thrills, even an ironic twist at the end, to captivate our imaginations and keep us up until three in the morning with no regrets. And make no mistake, a movie made from this novel will be a barn burner -- the only question being how many millions more will it dump into the Grisham coffers.

By now, you may have heard snatches of the plot. We hate to spoil the story, but the gist is that a successful young law firm partner "dies" in an accident, only to be discovered years later hiding abroad with close to eight figures in stolen loot. [Relax -- all that becomes clear in chapter one of forty-three, so we're hardly giving away the plot...:] What follows are the intricacies of legal maneuvers and one-up-man-ship by our hero, as he masterminds his own extrication from prison, while gradually spinning the whole incredible yarn through various conversations meted out carefully enough to keep us turning pages into the wee hours.

So, for us, the best John Grisham has indeed stood up -- with riveting story telling, political and social insight into the mechanisms of lawyering, and a tale that engrosses from start to finish. Can't wait for the movie !

{Reviewer's note -- no movie to date as far as we know...}(less)

It's really not what I'd normally read, what with all the crime and lawyers and being terribly terribly sneaky, but it's easy to read and I could appreciate the sneakiness. It's a pretty clever plot, I think, with a sting in the tail which actually made me say ouch aloud.

About John Grisham

"Long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, he was working 60-70 hours a week at a small Southaven, Mississippi law practice, squeezing in time before going to the office and during courtroom recesses to work on his hobby—writing his first novel.

Born on February 8, 1955 in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to a construction worker and a homemaker, John Grisham as a child dreamed of...more "Long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, he was working 60-70 hours a week at a small Southaven, Mississippi law practice, squeezing in time before going to the office and during courtroom recesses to work on his hobby—writing his first novel.

Born on February 8, 1955 in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to a construction worker and a homemaker, John Grisham as a child dreamed of being a professional baseball player. Realizing he didn't have the right stuff for a pro career, he shifted gears and majored in accounting at Mississippi State University. After graduating from law school at Ole Miss in 1981, he went on to practice law for nearly a decade in Southaven, specializing in criminal defense and personal injury litigation. In 1983, he was elected to the state House of Representatives and served until 1990.

One day at the DeSoto County courthouse, Grisham overheard the harrowing testimony of a twelve-year-old rape victim and was inspired to start a novel exploring what would have happened if the girl's father had murdered her assailants. Getting up at 5 a.m. every day to get in several hours of writing time before heading off to work, Grisham spent three years on A Time to Kill and finished it in 1987. Initially rejected by many publishers, it was eventually bought by Wynwood Press, who gave it a modest 5,000 copy printing and published it in June 1988.

That might have put an end to Grisham's hobby. However, he had already begun his next book, and it would quickly turn that hobby into a new full-time career—and spark one of publishing's greatest success stories. The day after Grisham completed A Time to Kill, he began work on another novel, the story of a hotshot young attorney lured to an apparently perfect law firm that was not what it appeared. When he sold the film rights to The Firm to Paramount Pictures for $600,000, Grisham suddenly became a hot property among publishers, and book rights were bought by Doubleday. Spending 47 weeks on The New York Times bestseller list, The Firm became the bestselling novel of 1991.

The successes of The Pelican Brief, which hit number one on the New York Times bestseller list, and The Client, which debuted at number one, confirmed Grisham's reputation as the master of the legal thriller. Grisham's success even renewed interest in A Time to Kill, which was republished in hardcover by Doubleday and then in paperback by Dell. This time around, it was a bestseller.

Since first publishing A Time to Kill in 1988, Grisham has written one novel a year (his other books are The Firm, The Pelican Brief, The Client, The Chamber, The Rainmaker, The Runaway Jury, The Partner, The Street Lawyer, The Testament, The Brethren, A Painted House, Skipping Christmas, The Summons, The King of Torts, Bleachers, The Last Juror, and The Broker) and all of them have become international bestsellers. There are currently over 225 million John Grisham books in print worldwide, which have been translated into 29 languages. Nine of his novels have been turned into films (The Firm, The Pelican Brief, The Client, A Time to Kill, The Rainmaker, The Chamber, A Painted House, The Runaway Jury, and Skipping Christmas), as was an original screenplay, The Gingerbread Man. The Innocent Man (October 2006) marks his first foray into non-fiction.

Grisham lives with his wife Renee and their two children Ty and Shea. The family splits their time between their Victorian home on a farm in Mississippi and a plantation near Charlottesville, VA.

Grisham took time off from writing for several months in 1996 to return, after a five-year hiatus, to the courtroom. He was honoring a commitment made before he had retired from the law to become a full-time writer: representing the family of a railroad brakeman killed when he was pinned between two cars. Preparing his case with the same passion and dedication as his books' protagonists, Grisham successfully argued his clients' case, earning them a jur(less)

Quotes from The Partner

“Life on the run was filled with dreams, some at night during sleep, real dreams, and some when the mind was awake but drifting. Most were terrifying, the nightmares of the shadows growing bolder and larger. Others were pleasant wishes of a rosy future, free of the past. These were rare, Patrick had learned. Life on the run was life in the past. There was no closure” — 3 people liked it
