About this listen

WHO JUDGES A JUDGE?

A corrupt judge is getting away with murder.

Lacy Stoltz investigates judicial misconduct in Florida. When she meets Greg Meyers, an indicted lawyer, he tells her a secret that will put her in the firing line.

Myers has dirt on a judge in league with organised crime who had forced through legislation to build a casino on a Native American reservation. Anyone who opposed the crooked scheme is dead. Now, Myers wants Lacy to make the judge's crimes public.

But if she does, Lacy will be gambling with her life...

Absolutely amazing

This was a very well written tale that had great characters, many twists and turns and did leave any loose ends. Loved it

A bit slow to get started

Enjoyed this book but it lacked momentum and the storyline felt like it took forever to get started!

Wonderful read

Excellent well thought out story. Builds suspense slowly and then moves into action. Also informative.

Grisham back to his best!

As a JG fan, I really enjoyed how the story unfolded and the ending was also more satisfying than some of his others.

Slow start, quick ending

This started out slow. Real slow. But then it gathered momentum and seemed to take off form there- almost as if the author wanted to finish it quickly. It seemed to jump to a conclusion towards the end with the whole plot outcome unfolding in a matter of a few chapters.

Absorbing

A fast paced thriller, typical of John Grisham. A real page turner that is very satisfying in its conclusion.

A little different from Grisham's usual style

But a cracking read/listen. Well written as usual, beautifully narrated a very satisfactory story. Recommended.
