#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER - In a weedy lot on the outskirts of Memphis, two boys watch a shiny Lincoln pull up to the curb.... Eleven-year-old Mark Sway and his younger brother were sharing a forbidden cigarette when a chance encounter with a suicidal lawyer left Mark knowing a bloody and explosive secret: the whereabouts of the most sought-after dead body in America. Now Mark is caught between a legal system gone mad and a mob killer desperate to cover up his crime. And his only ally is a woman named Reggie Love, who has been a lawyer for all of four years. Prosecutors are willing to break all the rules to make Mark talk. The mob will stop at nothing to keep him quiet. And Reggie will do anything to protect her client--even take a last, desperate gamble that could win Mark his freedom... or cost them both their lives. Don't miss John Grisham's new book, THE EXCHANGE: AFTER THE FIRM!

"Grisham at his best."--The Atlanta Journal
"Engrossing . . . Grisham keeps the pages of The Client turning faster than lawyers can scribble on legal pads."--San Francisco Chronicle "The desire to find out what happens next keeps the reader turning the pages. Grisham is an absolute master of the chase story."--The Washington Post "Heart-pounding . . . fast-paced."--The Orlando Sentinel
