The Whistler, Grisham - B +

                                               The reviewers are saying that Grisham is back on his form. I've never felt that  he stumbled, although the book from two years ago was weaker than most. That said, he continues his marvelous career of entertaining us with legal thrillers. This time we have a heroine who works for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct. Of course there is way more involved than a crooked judge: disbarred lawyers, an embittered court reporter, bad cops, hit men, a mastermind and a slew of Indians some very bad, some good, and their Casino, the source of a lot of cash and a lot of trouble.  Perhaps, the best thing though, is that the bad guys always get hoisted on their own petards and the good guys win (often with a cash reward).
