The Partner Grisham, John

Patrick Lanigan stole ninety million dollars from his law firm, faked his own death in a fiery car crash, and disappeared. Four years later, they find him in Brazil — tanned, fit, and living under a new name. Now he's been captured, tortured, and dragged back to face charges that could put him away for life. But Patrick isn't panicking. He's had four years to plan for this exact moment, and he's got leverage nobody saw coming. Grisham delivers a tightly wound legal thriller that's less courtroom drama, more high-stakes chess match. The twists come fast, the tension never lets up, and Patrick proves to be one of the most morally complicated protagonists Grisham's ever written. Perfect for fans of intricate plotting and antiheroes you can't help rooting for.
