Can I give this book less than 1 star? It's been a while since I've disliked a book as much as this one. Taking out 75% of the middle filler and it still wouldn't make a very good short story. I think JG was just living off of the reference (little that it was) to "The Firm". Let's hope that Mitch and Abby don't make a return engagement in any other books in the future. Don't count on this book being made into a movie. I got 2 Grisham books "The Exchange" and "Camino Ghosts" and now I'm hesitant to read the latter. How bad, pointless, mundane, redundant was "The Exchange" well you know it's lost your interest when half way through the book you're already thinking of the next book or two that you're going to read. I did finish it but then told my wife (who had read it before me) that she should have warned me away from it before I started reading it.
