The Appeal by John Grisham

This newest book by Grisham reminds me of the first one he wrote - The Firm, which I think was my favorite. Once again there is a fine young lawyer. His dad is a small-town lawyer and he has been Kyle's role model. Kyle wants to do something good and worthwhile with his law degree. Before he can even graduate from law school he is approached by some really bad guys. They have some evidence of a possible rape that happened in Kyle's college apartment five years ago. They blackmail Kyle into signing with a prestigious law firm in New York so that he can get them information on a high-profile law suit. Quick paced with lots of twists. It's a winner
