the testament - john grisham


john grisham lives up to his name in this one... nate is a hard, tough living lawyer coming out of rehab for the umpteenth time for a specific purpose.. his boss sends him all the way to the amazon jungle to find a missionary as she is the heir of an eleven billion dollar fortune which is being fought over greedily by her various previously unknown to her siblings, left to her by her apparently crazy/lucid ailing father who jumps out of a window to his death upon signing his will, or testament, and after having lost contact with the said daughter at her discretion.
set half the time in the brazilian jungle, this story is set to a slightly different tune than his other standard courtroom jail themes, and endeavours more to the human spirit. a good read.
