This is good so far. Just a bit hard to keep up with all the characters (specifically all the agents) I'm going to watch the movie after I'm done reading this.

I already own it, so of course they had 8 copies at the library sale! Poor Fi, were you at the library or did you try to buy it?

The way of the world, that.

This wasn't a bad Grisham. The action and suspense were right on. I just couldn't get past the vision of Julia and Denzel as Darby and Gray. They did not fit the profile of what I had envisioned as these characters.
I will definitely watch the movie. It might change my mind.

I thought Julia Roberts was perfect for Darby. I would not have thought of Denzel, or anyone that even remotely resembled him, but he really works in the film.

It's a tightly paced, suspenseful movie.

[Tonya]

I read this and saw the movie they both were good.
