Given the importance of what they do, and the controversies that often surround them, and the violent people they sometimes confront, it is remarkable that in the history of this country only four active federal judges have been murdered.

Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five.

Who is the Racketeer? And what does he have to do with the judge’s untimely demise? His name, for the moment, is Malcolm Bannister. Job status? Former attorney. Current residence? The Federal Prison Camp near Frostburg, Maryland.

On paper, Malcolm’s situation isn’t looking too good these days, but he’s got an ace up his sleeve. He knows who killed Judge Fawcett, and he knows why. The judge’s body was found in his remote lakeside cabin. There was no forced entry, no struggle, just two dead bodies: Judge Fawcett and his young secretary. And one large, state-of-the-art, extremely secure safe, opened and emptied.

What was in the safe? The FBI would love to know. And Malcolm Bannister would love to tell them. But everything has a price—especially information as explosive as the sequence of events that led to Judge Fawcett’s death. And the Racketeer wasn’t born yesterday . . .

Nothing is as it seems and everything’s fair game in this wickedly clever new novel from John Grisham, the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

读后感

GRISHAM 毫无疑问是Legal Thrillar领域的金童，我看过那些根据他书改编的电影，但没读过原著。这次挑一本新作，书背后的推荐吹翻了天，就这一本来说，PLOT无聊，Writing本身也毫无亮点， 看的我无数次打瞌睡。到一半了SCHEME也没怎么开始， 展开也毫不扣人心弦，常看这类作品...

不由自主地和Patricia Highsmith的Mr. Ripely 做比较。那本书里作者告诉读者所有的背景，读者在阅读过程中和主人公一起思考对策。而这本书里作者对读者隐藏了很多信息，随着内容的进展慢慢告诉读者，说俗了就是吊读者胃口。一旦你知道全部信息，换句话说读完整部小说，一般来说...

用户评价

感恩节放假想读个轻松、娱乐、twist较多的page-turner。John Grisham真是不负所望！

好无聊啊。。。就感觉是one sentence after another。。。太平淡了。。。最后稍微好一点

the partner 与the pelican brief 合而为一 老格江郎才尽了？

虎头蛇尾咯 开篇还是挺精彩的
