content: This book has the appearance of being churned out quickly, with perhaps Grisham's deserved high status causing fear among editors who would normally improve any author's text.The book's intention is apparently a lesson in ethics and greed, and to the extent that watching the hero/anti-hero rise and fall will make readers think, it is an enjoyable surprise.But readers who care about tight, detailed writing will gnash teeth in frustration. There are also too many improbabilities and questiones left unanswered.
