#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A “compulsively readable” (Time) thriller featuring all the twists and turns that have made John Grisham the most popular storyteller in the world

“A page-turner . . . Kyle McAvoy recalls Mitch McDeere from Grisham’s breakout novel The Firm. He’s young, idealistic, handsome, a little too cocky for his own good, but a brilliant lawyer who gets pulled in over his head.”—Los Angeles Times

Kyle McAvoy possesses an outstanding legal mind. Good-looking and affable, he has a glittering future. He also has a dark secret that could destroy his dreams, his career, even his life.

One night that secret catches up with him. The men who accost Kyle have a compromising video they’ll use to ruin him—unless he does exactly what they say.

What they offer Kyle is something any ambitious young lawyer would kill for: a job in Manhattan as an associate at the world’s largest law firm.

If Kyle accepts, he’ll be on the fast track to partnership and a fortune.

But there’s a catch. Kyle won’t be working for the firm but against it in a dispute between two powerful defense contractors worth billions.

Now Kyle is caught between the criminal forces manipulating him, the FBI, and his own law firm—in a malignant conspiracy not even Kyle, with all his intellect, cunning, and bravery, may be able to escape alive.
