Not sure if the shortening took out some of the character of his usual style. A good tale about the death of a wealth American who leaves all his wealth to an unknown illegitimate daughter instead of to any of his 3 exwives or the 1/2 dozen children. His detail on the US/Virginia legal system related to wills and testate was interesting. Bringing in trips to a little know part of the Brazilian remote riverways and Indian tribes in search of the woman opened up a whole other side to the tale. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

However, Nate, the lawyer in search of the actual heir to a fortune, was the best aspect of this novel. Grisham brought to life the realities of isolated natives living in nearly unreachable Brazilian wilds. The final twist at the end was ideal. ( )
