Synopsis#1 WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER - The iconic legal thriller that launched the career of America's favorite storyteller, hailed as "an absolute master" ( The Washington Post ) "[An] ingenious man-in-the-middle thriller." --Entertainment Weekly Mitch McDeere has worked hard to get where he is: third in his class at Harvard Law. Aggressively recruited by all the top firms, and initially headed for Wall Street, Mitch surprises everyone by joining Bendini, Lambert & Locke, a very private, very rich tax firm in Memphis. Mitch and his wife, Abby, move to Tennessee and quickly settle into their new life: they're young, happy, and on the fast track. Or so they think. Soon, though, Mitch senses trouble: two of the partners die in a suspicious diving accident off Grand Cayman; the firm's management is overly proud of the fact that no one has ever resigned; and security measures at the firm, even for a company with billionaire clients, are more than a little stringent. Then, suddenly, Mitch's vague suspicions come to life. The FBI has the lowdown on Mitch's firm and needs his help. Now Mitch is caught between a rock and a hard place. The FBI will bust him if he doesn't cooperate, and the firm will kill him if he does. There's no way out. Or is there? The story continues in The Exchange, the "breathtaking" ( The Wall Street Journal ) sequel to The Firm !, At the top of his class at Harvard Law, he hadhis choice of the best in America.

  • Another Grisham great read.

    Another great book from John Grisham. Make sure you read it before you take the sequel. The movie does not do this book justice.
