Like many I was pretty disappointed with Grisham's previous release, Camino Island but Rooster Bar sees him returning to more familiar legal territory and things improve markedly as a result. I cannot comment on just how 'enhanced' the audio is but the original seemed fine to me. NB This review is from the original 20th October release which was withdrawn by Audible in favour of a newer version with enhanced audio. Ingenious, immersive and page-turning, The Rooster Bar is a John Grisham legal thriller bar none. But to do so, they have to leave law school, pretend they are qualified and go into battle with a billionaire and the FBI. Maybe there's a way to escape their crushing debt, expose the bank and the scam, and make a few bucks in the process. And when they learn that their school is one of a chain owned by a shady New York hedge-fund operator who also happens to own a bank specialising in student loans, the three realise they have been caught up in The Great Law School Scam. They all borrowed heavily to attend a law school so mediocre that its graduates rarely pass the bar exam, let alone get good jobs. As third-year students, they realise they have been duped. But these days these three disillusioned friends spend a lot of time hanging out in The Rooster Bar, the place where Todd serves drinks. John Grisham's newest legal thriller takes you inside a law firm that shouldn't exist.Law students Mark, Todd and Zola wanted to change the world - to make it a better place.
