Summary
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Nothing is as it seems and everything’s fair game in this “deeply engrossing thriller” (The Washington Post) from the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

“The Racketeer is guilty of only one thing: keeping us engaged until the very last page.”—USA Today

In the history of the United States, only four active federal judges have been murdered. Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five. His body is found in his remote lakeside cabin. There is no sign of forced entry or struggle. Just two dead bodies: Judge Fawcett and his young secretary. And one large, state-of-the-art, extremely secure safe, opened and emptied.

One man, a former attorney, knows who killed Judge Fawcett, and why. But that man, Malcolm Bannister, is currently residing in the Federal Prison Camp near Frostburg, Maryland. Though serving time, Malcolm has an ace up his sleeve. He has information the FBI would love to know. Malcolm would love to tell them. But everything has a price—and the man known as the Racketeer wasn’t born yesterday.

The Racketeer was full of twists and turns. Although I guessed the final twist, I stayed interested. It required a bit of a stretch to accept the stunts that are pulled could actually be accomplished. But that's why it's fiction ...

Loved the book. Story was absorbing and characters were interesting. A fun fiction.

The story is good but the last 2/3 hours could have been only a few chapters. The narrator making different accents and voices wasn’t great either

Great story, a little less intricate than most Grisham novels but I may be spoiled after "The Reconing

If you enjoy Grisham novels, you’ll enjoy this one too! I devoured this one as usual.

Great story; fine presentation. Story line reminds me of Breaking Bad and how life circumstances can change a person's perspective.

The story was interesting with some surprises. The narrator was well suited for the novel’s characters. Fun read.

Not the best Grishom book. His earlier books were a lot better.
