shares some cross-genre sensibilities, being a "mafia vs. cops" book in the sense that one person in the other camp can hinge the whole story / plot. readable, quality, yet knowledge of the writer's entire works seems to depress how far i can raise that ticker. in other words, not a Grisham fan, so ...
