Description

''A riveting read' Mail on Sunday

The law has failed them. Sebastian Rudd will not.

Sebastian Rudd takes on the cases no one else wants.

As a result, his last office was firebombed - either by drug dealers or cops. And things are about to get even more complicated.

Arch Swanger is a criminal lowlife and the prime suspect in the abduction and presumed murder of the daughter of the assistant chief of police. When Rudd agrees to represent him, Swanger lets him in on a terrible secret.

It's a secret Rudd wishes he never heard - and one that will threaten everything he holds dear.

JOHN GRISHAM IS THE MASTER OF THE LEGAL THRILLER

Reviews

John Grisham has perfected the art of cooking up convincing, fast-paced thrillers * Telegraph *
Leaves one eager for more * Spectator *
No one does it better than Grisham * Daily Telegraph *
A master storyteller * Huffington Post *
Sebastian Rudd is a kind of social justice warrior and Grisham uses him to take jabs at the legal system . . . all with a blunt, rude, gravelly poetic wise guy voice that makes Rudd come across as a kind of 21st-century Philip Marlowe. * Benjamin Percy, The New York Times Book Review *
Terrific . . . The biggest mystery that ROGUE LAWYER poses is how Grisham, at this stage in his long writing career, can still devise all these distinctive characters, tricky legal predicaments and roguishly cheating ways to worm out of them. It's one mystery we Grisham fans just want to appreciate, rather than solve. * Washington Post *
Highly readable, thanks to Grisham's fast-moving narrative skills * Independent *
The energy is sustained to the end * Sunday Times *
A riveting read . . . A very satisfying ending * Gloria Hunniford, Mail on Sunday *
