The Racketeer

De: John Grisham

Narrado por: J. D. Jackson

EVERYONE HAS THEIR PRICE.

A judge has been brutally murdered.

His body is found in a remote lakeside cabin. There is no sign of forced entry or a struggle. Just two dead bodies - the judge and his secretary - and one state-of-the-art safe, opened and emptied.

Ex-attorney Malcolm Bannister knows who killed the judge - and why. The FBI need to know his secrets. And Bannister is ready to talk. But there's a catch: he is currently serving a ten-year prison sentence.

Bannister knows that everything has a price - and this racketeer wasn't born yesterday.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Grisham is brilliantly comic in a novel that is full of zest and brimming with memorable characters and rich storylines." (The Sunday Times)

"Superbly plotted legal thriller." (Sunday Express)

"The best thriller writer alive" (Ken Follett, Evening Standard)

Excellent and not just court room

Fine story and nice surprises. The twists are not entirely predictable yet there is a level of detail in the narrative, which leaves very few options for the final revelation. Massively entertaining; a perfect summer holiday listen.

His Best Book Ever

You'll love it. Lots's of twists, turns and a fabulous storyline I was enthralled from start to finish.

A slightly faster pace needed but a good story..

I enjoyed the listen but the pace of events was a little slow at times and this detracted from the enjoyment.

An interesting twist of events in the story that I hadn't seen coming from afar and the reading was very well done. I will need to check out other Grisham books before I know whether this pace is typical.

Brilliant!!

Although the author claims that very little research was done and sort of hinted that the story is far fetched, it was very believable. Could not stop listening.

Great, easy to listen to, intriguing story
