The Rooster Bar

The explosive crime thriller from the number 1 Sunday Times bestselling author

De: John Grisham

Narrado por: Ari Fliakos

'The Best Thriller Writer Alive' Ken Follett

John Grisham's newest legal thriller takes you inside a law firm that shouldn't exist.

Law students Mark, Todd and Zola wanted to change the world - to make it a better place. But these days these three disillusioned friends spend a lot of time hanging out in The Rooster Bar, the place where Todd serves drinks. As third-year students, they realise they have been duped. They all borrowed heavily to attend a law school so mediocre that its graduates rarely pass the bar exam, let alone get good jobs. And when they learn that their school is one of a chain owned by a shady New York hedge-fund operator who also happens to own a bank specialising in student loans, the three realise they have been caught up in The Great Law School Scam.

So they begin plotting a way out. Maybe there's a way to escape their crushing debt, expose the bank and the scam, and make a few bucks in the process. But to do so, they have to leave law school, pretend they are qualified and go into battle with a billionaire and the FBI . . .

Ingenious, immersive and page-turning, The Rooster Bar is a John Grisham legal thriller bar none.

Reseñas de la Crítica

The reason [Grisham is] so popular is because he's so good. If anything, he may be America's most underrated best selling author, because all he does is write compelling, page-turning fiction, book after book, year after year (Michael Levin, New York Times bestselling author)

The multi-layered plot is inventively sustained and, as always with Grisham, the scintillating storytelling serves to highlight a substantial issue: the ruinous repercussions of graduate debt and the scandal of "diploma mill" colleges

A wild, hard-to-put-down romp

Smartly told . . . Bravo to Grisham for using his star power to shine another spotlight on an all-too-real problem in this gratifying and all-too-real book

Grisham writes in such an inventive spirit . . . [a] buoyant, mischievous thriller . . . THE ROOSTER BAR is written with the same verve Grisham brought to this summer's CAMINO ISLAND with the same sense that this reliable best-selling author is feeling real pleasure, and not just obligation, in delivering his work

Good idea; good, vengeful execution

Engrossing

Nice to read a law story again

John Grisham never disappoints. Great read and it turned and ended where I did not expect. Wish they guys could get away with it a bit longer ....... but still enjoyable

Storyline not as smooth as I expected

Though beautifully narrated, John Grisham's storyline was a bit lacking. The first half of the story is pretty fascinating and hooking!!!!! It makes you imagine how the rest of the story might unravel. But unfortunately it unravels in a rather bland and monotonous way.

Excellent read and easy to,follow along

Listening to this book really made it interesting to get to the end.Very well done

Law school scam

Fascinating subject.... makes you wonder if this does actually happen.... ‘makes you think, doesn’t it?’

Grisham Disbarred

Unlikeable characters. Dull and repetitious. The Law (sic) treated like a doormat. Snowflakes welcome. Terrible.
