The Firm

The gripping bestseller that came before The Exchange

Summary

THE BOOK THAT CAME BEFORE THE EXCHANGE.
Featuring an exclusive introduction from the author.

_____

He thought it was his dream job. Until it turned into his worst nightmare. . .

When Mitch McDeere qualified third in his class at Harvard, offers poured in from every law firm in America. Bendini, Lambert and Locke were a small, well-respected firm, but their offer exceeded Mitch's wildest expectations: a fantastic salary, a new home, and the keys to a brand new BMW.

Except for the mysterious deaths of previous lawyers with the firm. And the FBI investigations. And the secret files.

Mitch soon realises that he's working for the Mafia's law firm, and there is no way out - because you do not want this company's severance package. . .

To survive, he will have to play both sides against each other, and navigate a vast criminal conspiracy that goes higher than he ever imagined.
