The Racketeer / John Grisham / 340 pages

John Grisham departs a bit from his usual storyline to introduce us to Malcolm Bannister, a small town African American lawyer, who's been tricked by a sleezeball and imprisoned in a white collar country-club prison.  Naturally Malcolm has some issues with the feds.  In prison, he helps his fellow prisoners with his legal expertise and learns an important secret about the murder of a federal judge.  Tip of the day...if you end up in a federal white collar crime prison...get the job as the librarian.  This is a great book that will have you rooting for the "bad" guys.  Enjoy!
