Hey there,
I have been
reading the really enthralling book The Firm by John Grisham. It is his second
novel and 1.5 million copies were sold. The story is about Mitchell McDeere a bright
ambitious young man married to his early love Abby Sutherland. After graduating the third in his class at Harward
Law School he gets offers from some big and well-known firms in New York and
Chicago. However, he rejects these offers in favor of the tax law firm Bendini,
Lumbert and Locke located in Memphis. He is not able to resist the large
salary, the lease on a new car and the low interest mortgage on a house offered
to him. Just before Mitchell starts at
the company two colleagues die in a diving accident. The senior partners seem to be proud of the
fact that nobody has every resigned. The only ones who left the firm did so in
coffins. Becoming more and more suspicious Mitchell hires Eddie Lomax a private
detective who should investigate the deaths and find out what really has
happened. Lomax found out that the deaths of the atternoys happened under suspicious circumstances and no
details of their deaths are shown up anywhere. The day Mitchell receive this
report Lomax is murdered. After that Mitchell becomes more and more involved in
the dubious methods of the firm and find himself in a labyrinth of violence,
hate and danger…
I won’t reveal
more details. You should read it yourself it is worth!
Enjoy!
