Haven’t read this since the 90’s when I was reading everything bg Grisham, but remember it being one of my very favorite novels at that time. Agree with your assessment as a low-key horror novel. :)

Fantastic review, Jordan! This novel really resonates with me, as I had a very brief career in a big corporate law firm. I still have nightmares about it.

Thanks for watching! I absolutely love legal thrillers. Big fan of Grisham and Turow, even if it's not high literature. There's something to be said for escapism, entertainment value, and edge-of-your-seat suspense. It's not an easy art, tbh. I may do a video at some point about my favorite legal thrillers.

Thanks for the review. The plot seems to be quite basic, mostly thriller material. I would never have this dilemma, because I will never accept an offer like this. It's quite shallow human behavior even by teenage standards.

Yeah, the plot's quite basic. And you're right; it's definitely a thriller. That said, I think the fun in this book is in the pacing and tension and suspense. Thanks for watching!
