À propos de cet audio

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From America’s favorite storyteller comes “one of his best legal dramas” (Associated Press): a gripping thriller about a former big-city lawyer who finds herself up against Big Coal—and under attack.

“Yes, Gray Mountain is fiction. But after reading the book, you’ll believe heroic action must be taken.”—USA Today

The year is 2008 and Samantha Kofer’s career at a huge Wall Street law firm is on the fast track—until the recession hits and she is downsized, furloughed, and escorted out of the building. Samantha, though, is offered an opportunity to work at a legal aid clinic for one year without pay, all for a slim chance of getting rehired.

In a matter of days Samantha moves from Manhattan to Brady, Virginia, population 2,200, in the heart of Appalachia—a part of the world she has only read about. Samantha’s new job takes her into the murky and dangerous world of coal mining, where laws are often broken, communities are divided, and the land itself is under attack. But some of the locals aren’t so thrilled to have a big-city lawyer in town, and within weeks Samantha is engulfed in litigation that turns deadly. Because like most small towns, Brady harbors big secrets that some will kill to conceal.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“An important new novel . . . Grisham’s work—always superior entertainment—is evolving into something more serious, more powerful, more worthy of his exceptional talent.”—Patrick Anderson, The Washington Post

“John Grisham makes a powerful closing argument against Big Coal, but the message never obscures a satisfying, old-fashioned, good guy/bad guy legal thriller.”—Christian Science Monitor

“Grisham has written one of his best legal dramas in quite some time with this dive into small-town politics. There’s a mystery, but that’s a minor portion of the story. The main thrust that will engage readers is Samantha Kofer and the cast of characters that help her discover her passion.”—Associated Press

Les plus pertinents

Very hard to get past the terrible read: She read it line by line, and not sentence by sentence. An audio read for it to be excellent, must have expected inflection and conversational emphasis, how it sounds in our heads when we read a book. She seemed self-conscious about providing any extreme emotion as the story itself could actually use that support. So, overall, the story itself is good but filled with clichés, and the audio makes it very annoying.
