When John Grisham arrived on the scene so many years ago, I read a number of his books as soon as they were released and then grew tired of something about his books or his writing style and they no longer interested me. Not sure what it was, but I haven't read a Grisham book in years. I found this in paperback at a vacation home in the Northern Neck of Virginia and decided to spend some time on the pier, beach and shore with this book. Finished it before we had to leave the vacation home and truly enjoyed the story. I had no preconceived notions about the book considering that I had read no reviews of it, nor had I gone on-line to see what people had said about it, but it was a good, quick summer read. Maybe not enough to get me back into reading Grisham, but enjoyable nonetheless.
