THE ASSOCIATE

Author: John Grisham
Genre: Thriller, Standalone
Published: 2009
Personal Rating: 4/5
Yearly Count: 27



Five years ago, as undergrad students, Kyle and his fraternity brothers participated in behavior that was inappropriate. They all had fairly good success in forgetting about the event, until Kyle was forced to take a particular, unwanted offer at a law firm upon his graduation. He was forced by blackmail.

I have liked every Grisham book I have read. Yes, some are better than others, but I always enjoy the familiarity of his easy, but interesting law-based books. This one kept with the tradition. The characters were authentic and I believed the story line. Not only that, I was always eager to get back to it and when I did, it consistently took hold of me.
