The Racketeer

The gripping crime thriller from the number 1 Sunday Times bestselling author

By: John Grisham

Narrated by: J.D. Jackson

EVERYONE HAS THEIR PRICE.

A judge has been brutally murdered.

His body is found in a remote lakeside cabin. There is no sign of forced entry or a struggle. Just two dead bodies - the judge and his secretary - and one state-of-the-art safe, opened and emptied.

Ex-attorney Malcolm Bannister knows who killed the judge - and why. The FBI need to know his secrets. And Bannister is ready to talk. But there's a catch: he is currently serving a ten-year prison sentence.

Bannister knows that everything has a price - and this racketeer wasn't born yesterday.

Critic reviews

Electrifying

The best thriller writer alive (Ken Follett)

No one does it better than Grisham

Exhilarating . . . surprising . . . ingenious

Excellent and not just court room

Fine story and nice surprises. The twists are not entirely predictable yet there is a level of detail in the narrative, which leaves very few options for the final revelation. Massively entertaining; a perfect summer holiday listen.

Brilliant!!

Although the author claims that very little research was done and sort of hinted that the story is far fetched, it was very believable. Could not stop listening.
