 ... firm, living in Brazil under the name 'Danilo'. He is interrogated brutally for hours by the firm, with the FBI hammering at the doors as well, looking to make a case against the crime. Add to this Patrick's wife, infuriated and aggressively seeking a divorce, and we have a mix of different people all gagging for Patrick to suffer. However, as with every Grisham book, things are not always as they seem, and the author naturally has a few twists to the tale. My Opinion This novel from Grisham opens better than any of ...more

Crowned Review The Partner - John Grisham: It's the Reader that Gets Captured (1104 words)
by Javelina - written on 03.05.02 (Very useful, 1312 readings)

I chose The Partner, banking on the popularity and success of John Grisham?s books as well as movies. This paperback book, stamped #1 New York Times Bestseller on the front cover, was published in 1997. Working in the field of law himself, Grisham has written many books that fall in the category of legal thrillers. Not very well acquainted with this author?s highly praised writing, I decided to try one of Grisham?sbooks. The Partner opens with several characters conspiring to kidnap a man named ?Danilo?, who is living in Ponta Pora, Brazil. In the next series of events, we discover that people have been searching for Danilo for over four years. Danilo is ...

The Partner is the 8th novel from the award winning legal thriller author John Grisham. With a background as a lawyer, Grisham has applied his learnt trade to his novels with great effect. The Plot Patrick Lanigan had it all: beautiful family, lovely house, great job at a top law firm. He was riding high on life. Then, one day, he dies in a sudden car crash, and everything ends. His family mourn, and his company rue the loss of a great employee. Until, that is, $90 million disappears from the company's funds a mere few days after Patrick's death. Suspicious, they realise all is not what it seems, and Patrick has conspired to fake his own death and ...

Premium Review The Partner - John Grisham: Classic Grisham (198 words)

Classic Grisham is how I would sum up The Partner. The story involves a Partner of a firm realising he is on his way out whether he likes it or not. Before he gets the push he fakes his own death and steals a huge sum from the Partnership account. The book opens in Brazil when the main charcter's (Patrick) past is about to catch up with him. He is caputred and tortured by people working on behalf of the Partnership who are trying to recover the money. Patrick has a woman in Brazil (Eva) who he has taught how to keep the money away from the authorities should he get caught. The story involves Patrick, Eva, the authorities and the Partnership's heavies ...
