The Pardon

De: James Grippando

Narrado por: Ron McLarty

Fans of John Grisham's legal thrillers will love the suspenseful action and intriguing courtroom drama of James Grippando's bestsellers. In The Pardon, Grippando delivers a scorching tale of vengeance that stains the sultry streets of southern Florida.

Miami defense attorney Jack Swytek has long rebelled against his father, Harry, now Florida's governor. The two disagree on nearly everything, especially the death penalty. And when Harry allows one of Jack's clients - a man Jack believes is innocent - to die in the electric chair, their estrangement seems complete. But when they are faced with a psychopath's twisted game of vengeance, father and son have nowhere to turn but to each other.

Great Series

I love listening to James's books. His characters have human vulnerabilities and i am on the edge of my seat every time I read one. I think the pardon was his first book and although it had a bit of a slow start, suddenly it twisted and I was riveted and couldn't put it down. I love that it is obvious that integrity and personal relationships are an important part of the development of his cast of main characters. Most enjoyable, and my mission is to plough my way through all of his books. Jack the main character sometimes comes across as being naive and it makes me nervous especially when he is dealing with women. I think that this is on purpose and it just makes the story more nerve-racking to see how Jack will come through and not be sucked in by 'wiley women', we know he is basically a good guy. It will be interesting to see how he progresses in the books to come.

Great book

I enjoyed this book.

Funny, I think I’ve listened to it before. Sometimes Audible messes up. I even had to buy it the second time, botherness.

Great plot

Excellent plo,interwoven with solid characters. Look forward to the next book in the series!

Pitifully clichéd...

3 hours into an interesting book, and the author does the worst, most hackneyed, and most obvious plot twist- I won’t give up any secrets, but it’s ridiculously stupid, and so annoying. I assume that these authors won’t do this bc it’s way too predictable.
Turn thing around for the lawyer. Lame.

Unsatisfying

There are so many good reads in this genre, this one is really a disappointment. The characters are unlikable, the plot, thin and predictable, and I don’t enjoy this narrator.
