The Client was one of the first books I read by John Grisham, and it’s still a great read. He writes like he love it, and his southern roots and legal background give him an edge. This one is a thrill ride set in the South where we find ourselves rooting for two young boys thrust into the chase of their lives after a lawyer’s deathbed confession about a murdered US Senator. Here is a little description – you can read the rest and find an excerpt on the author’s web page.
In a weedy lot on the outskirts of Memphis, two boys watch a shiny Lincoln pull up to the curb…Eleven-year-old Mark Sway and his younger brother were sharing a forbidden cigarette when a chance encounter with a suicidal lawyer left Mark knowing a bloody and explosive secret: the whereabouts of the most sought-after dead body in America…
Sometimes, pulling out an old book to re-read or read for the first time is like wrapping up in a comforter on a cold winter's day. It envelopes you in warmth keeping you toasty and happy.
