Title: wrong premise
Review: Normally, I'm a big fan of Grisham, and I must admit that the book is masterfully written. However the various plots just could not exist in the real world. CIA killing an American adviser to the President? NOT going to happen. Additionally, Grisham just doesn't get the conversation inside Washington at the time the book was written. The CIA was fighting for its life against politicization (and failing in several instances). The DIA was constantly entering fabrications into the matrix. The Cheney administration was good at drawing solid lines between imaginary points, using false intelligence vetted by DOD.No, while I normally like Grisham's work, the alleged facts in the book just don't jibe with the real world. I do offer 2 stars to the master storyteller, but he needs to dig a lot deeper to get to reality.Sometimes the truth can be stranger than any fiction.
