“Troy Phelan is a self-made billionaire, one of the richest men in the United States. He is also eccentric, reclusive, confined to a wheelchair, and looking for a way to die. His heirs, to no one’s surprise – especially Troy’s – are circling like vultures.
Nate O’Riley is a high-octane Washington litigator who’s lived too hard, too fast, for to long. His second marriage is in shambles, he is emerging from his fourth stay in rehab armed with little more than his fragile sobriety, good intentions and resilient sense of humor. Returning to the real world is always difficult, but this time it’s going to be murder.
Rachel Lane is a young woman who chose to give her life to God, who walked away from the modern world with all its strivings and trappings and emcumbrances, and went to live and work with a primitive tribe of Indians in the deepest jungles of Brazil.
In a story that mixes legal suspense with a remarkable adventure, their lives are forever altered by the startling secret of The Testament.”
I have always been a big fan of John Grisham’s work and ‘the testament’ did not disappoint. This book has a couple of extra and unexpected surprises thrown in at the very core of the storyline that really make it a good book to read. I really enjoyed how Grisham paints vivid pictures, not only of the characters, but also of their environments.
It is a thrilling read, definately what I would call a commuter book – one you could happily spend 30mins to an hour reading a day and be satisfied.
