At the top of his class at Harvard Law, he had his choice of the best in America. He made a deadly mistake. When Mitch McDeere signed on with Bendini, Lambert & Locke of Memphis, he thought he and his beautiful wife, Abby, were on their way. The firm leased him a BMW, paid off his school loans, arranged a mortgage and hired him a decorator. Mitch McDeere should have remembered what his brother Ray -- doing fifteen years in a Tennessee jail -- already knew. You never get nothing for nothing. Now the FBI has the lowdown on Mitch's firm and needs his help. Mitch is caught between a rock and a hard place, with no choice -- if he wants to live.
This was an enjoyable read, even though the story was far-fetched. (How did some just-out-of-college lawyer know how to protect himself so much better than the FBI could manage?)
This book really held my attention with it's perfect mix of suspense, action and mystery. Definitely a page turner I couldn't put it down until I found out the ending then came the disappointment. I think the ending was pretty weak comparable to the writing of the previous pages.
