Synopsis
John Grisham, delivers another legal thriller of unparalled suspense. With fourteen years left on a twenty-year sentence, notorious Washington power broker, Joel Blackman, receives a surprise pardon from a lame-duck president. He is smuggled out of the country on a military cargo plane, given a new identity, and tucked away in a small town in Italy. But Blackman has serious enemies from his past. As the CIA watches him closely, the question is not whether he will be killed, but rather who will kill him first.

Publisher's Note

In his final hours in the Oval Office, the outgoing President grants a controversial last-minute pardon to Joel Backman, a notorious Washington power broker who has spent the last six years hidden away in a federal prison. What no one knows is that the President issues the pardon only after receiving enormous pressure from the CIA. It seems Backman, in his power broker heyday, may have obtained secrets that compromise the world’s most sophisticated satellite surveillance system.
Backman is quietly smuggled out of the country in a military cargo plane, given a new name, a new identity, and a new home in Italy. Eventually, after he has settled into his new life, the CIA will leak his whereabouts to the Israelis, the Russians, the Chinese, and the Saudis. Then the CIA will do what it does best: sit back and watch. The question is not whether Backman will survive—there is no chance of that. The question the CIA needs answered is, who will kill him?

      Surprisingly good, and satisfying
    Review created: 10/15/05
    9 of 11 people found this review helpful.

    I've read other Grisham books, and he always impresses me with they way he crafts a story, and the way he has an empathy with his characters. He's also very skilled
    in the way he can keep the reader's interest going through various twists and turns.

    There are times when the continuity and suspension of disbelief are a little strained. Like when the old spymaster at the CIA sets the plot in motion by
    springing a convicted lobbyista and lawyer out of prison and transplants him
    in Italy, complete with language tutor. There doesn't seem to be a reason
    for this turn of events, and even the field operatives, don't get why the
    operation is happening. But on the other hand Grisham is constantly rooting
    for the hero, a rumpled lobbyist/attorney who is acting as unwitting bait for
    a supposed bevy of international spooks and assasins who will off him, because
    they may suspect him being part of a previous dealings with advanced surveillance technology and national security. But our hero is no dummy, and after four years in the slammer, with almost no resources, he's able to slowly
    gain friends and allies, make use of some hidden resources and gain his way towards freedom.

    Grisham as always takes swipes at the establishment and their stupidty and hypocracy. He doesn't suffer fools lightly.

    A good, fun, quick read.
