The Testament

De: John Grisham

Narrado por: Frank Muller

Troy Phelan is a self-made billionaire, one of the richest men in the United States. He is also eccentric, reclusive, confined to a wheelchair, and looking for a way to die. His heirs, to no one's surprise - especially Troy's - are circling like vultures.

Nate O'Riley is a high-octane Washington litigator who's lived too hard, too fast, for too long. His second marriage is a shambles, and he is emerging from his fourth stay in rehab armed with little more than his fragile sobriety, good intentions, and resilient sense of humour. Returning to the real world is always difficult, but this time it's going to be murder.

Rachel Lane is a young woman who chose to give her life to God, who walked away from the modern world with all its strivings and trappings and encumbrances, and went to live and work with a primitive tribe of Indians in the deepest jungles of Brazil.

In a story that mixes legal suspense with a remarkable adventure, their lives are forever altered by the startling secret of The Testament.

brilliant book

such a beautiful book to read. I have enjoyed it very much I must say

Well spoken

Frank Muller did well putting on the different accents for each character. I enjoyed listening to this but did so at 1.25 speed as I found him a little slow, even then I probably could have sped it up as it was still perfectly easy to listen to. The story itself isn't amazing (not as gripping as Grisham's other novels) but I enjoyed it well enough.

It's wicked.

Frank Muller has a voice matched perfectly to reading a John Grisham novel which is composed of an insight into humanities frailties and a wicked sense of humour. Loved it.

Captivating tale

From 2 chapters in I was hooked. Great listen but if you have lots to do rather a distraction.

Very interesting

I loved every bit of it. Will certainly listen to it a couple more times.
