Expect the expected in this tepid legal thriller from bestseller Grisham that may be the debut of a series character.... [M]ost readers will rapidly turn the pages, but the subtlety and full-blooded characters that mark the author's best work are sadly absent.

When Lehman Brothers collapsed in 2008, law firms went down, too, and third-year law associate Samantha Kofer loses her job and her dreams. She ends up as an unpaid intern at a legal aid clinic in Appalachia, where the problems are as troubling as the dangerous secret she discovers.
