Rogue Lawyer
Rogue Lawyer by John Grisham
Another lawyer book. I haven’t read too many of these novels, so the latest best-seller, and its genre, are fresh to me. Maybe not new, but seldom consumed.
“However, if a defense lawyer is caught cheating, he or she gets nailed with sanctions by the court, reprimanded by the state bar association, maybe even indicted. If a prosecutor gets caught cheating, he either gets reelected or elevated to the bench. Our system never holds a bad prosecutor accountable.”
Unviable tone
Not having read much of Grisham’s oeuvre, I’m unsure of the tone, but part way through, I started to wonder if this was noire, hard-boiled detective spin. The prose reminded me of that style.
Gripping read, not too deep. Enjoyed the library book immensely.
