Rogue Lawyer by John Grisham
Sebastian Rudd is a street lawyer. His
office is in a bulletproof van, he has no partners, and only one employee whose
name is Partner. Partner is Sebastian's driver, law clerk, and body
guard. Sebastian is not afraid to take on clients other attorneys avoid.
He believes everyone is entitled to a fair trial, no matter what they've done.
John Grisham is always good at writing legal
thrillers, and this one does not disappoint. He has written this book in
a different format with chapters and parts, each part representing a different
story and client. Sebastian Rudd is the protagonist in the story, he is a
street wise, colorful, likeable lawyer, who defends some unsavory characters.
He works out of his van, equipped with wi-fi, a bar, a small fridge and leather
chairs. His home, a small apartment with the main piece of furniture
being a vintage pool table. Playing pool helps Sebastian relax and
think. Sebastian makes many enemies throughout the story and his personal
life is a mess, but I found myself cheering for him all along the way.
