Publisher's Summary

Worldwide best-seller John Grisham goes rogue with his most suspenseful thriller yet....

Sometimes you have to fight dirty to get clean.

Sebastian Rudd takes the cases no one else wants to take: the drug-addled punk accused of murdering two little girls; a crime lord on death row; a homeowner accused of shooting at a SWAT team. l

Rudd believes that every person accused of a crime is entitled to a fair trial - even if he has to cheat to get one. He antagonises people from both sides of the law: his last office was firebombed, either by drug dealers or cops. He doesn't know or care which.

But things are about to get even more complicated for Sebastian. Arch Swanger is the prime suspect in the abduction and presumed murder of 21-year-old Jiliana Kemp, the daughter of the assistant chief of police. When Swanger asks Sebastian to represent him, he lets Sebastian in on a terrible secret . . . one that will threaten everything Sebastian holds dear.

Gritty, witty, and impossible to put down, Rogue Lawyer is the master of the legal thriller at his very best.

Boring with no plot. Didn’t finish

I kept waiting for some sort of coherent story line, but seems to be a series of short stories outlining the flawed justice system in US. Very disappointing.

Bit boring

Somewhat like a couple of quite short (and then abbreviated) stories. Grisham must be too successful and sloughing readers off with some scraps.
Not impressed. returning it.

Wait what happened…

The book though full of misogyny and stereotyping… I couldn’t stop listening… then the end? I literally sat up and went “what! That’s it, that’s the end”?
