About this product

Product Information

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - They call themselves the Brethren: three disgraced former judges doing time in a Florida federal prison. One was sent up for tax evasion. Another, for skimming bingo profits. The third for a career-ending drunken joyride. Meeting daily in the prison law library, taking exercise walks in their boxer shorts, these judges-turned-felons can reminisce about old court cases, dispense a little jailhouse justice, and contemplate where their lives went wrong. Or they can use their time in prison to get very rich--very fast. And so they sit, sprawled in the prison library, furiously writing letters, fine-tuning a wickedly brilliant extortion scam--while events outside their prison walls begin to erupt. A bizarre presidential election is holding the nation in its grips, and a powerful government figure is pulling some very hidden strings. For the Brethren, the timing couldn't be better. Because they've just found the perfect victim.

Seller was helpful and communicated when I had questions. The package was delayed so it was late but that happens through shipping not the sellers fault the shipping was a bit pricey but well worth it. The Jacket was in amazing condition for being used as described. I was so excited to be able to replace the exact jacket that I had a few years ago, they are discontinued I thought I'd never see another Jacket like it again, so warm and great for winter. Thank you so much!

I bought a book he posted as having the condition "Brand New". The book I received was obviously used, with liquid stains across the fore-edge that soaked into virtually every page. When I pointed it out he said "the book was sold as described" and refused to pay return postage, which eBay ended up covering.

  • another solid book

    Firstly, this book is written by John Grisham, which means that you get the usual well-written book, so that once you start it, you don't put it down till you finish. (At least, that's what happened to me. I read it in a weekend.) What makes this one different is that there aren't really any good guys. It's the story of how some crooked judges are able to run a scam from inside a jail, paralleled with how a completely evil general tries to buy an election and start a war. The scam itself is really the hero of the story. I often caught myself thinking "Isn't that clever?". Also, Grisham shows his usual cynicism of lawyers with a funny character called Trevor. (Here's betting Steve Buscemi will play him in the movie!) Other reviewers have commented that the plot could have done with some ...

  • Yet another great page turner by Grisham!!

    I'm a great fan of John Grisham novels--I think I have almost the whole collection in paperback. The Brethren is another example of Grisham's amazing gift of storytelling. The plot of this story at the outset is almost too outlandish...but then it becomes real and believable as you follow the story. The author may not be practicing law any more, but he seems to have an endless fountain of ideas and stories for many novels to come. This is a must-read for Grisham fans. Highly recommended!!

  • An exciting and easy read.

    Yet another John Grisham legal adventure that grabs you early and makes it hard to take a break. Jailed judges, blackmail, offshore bank accounts, CIA, presidential election influence, pardons, corruption, and of course death - all the elements of an exciting thriller. Although I am not much of reader, but I found the entire storyline captivating and engaging.
