Patrick Lanigan was believed to have died in a car accident, leaving behind a wife, a daughter and a promising legal career in Biloxi, Mississippi. Soon afterwards, ninety million dollars disappeared from his firm's offshore account. Four years later, the people searching for the money finally locate a changed man living in Brazil. His capture seems to promise answers, but Patrick has had years to prepare for the consequences of being found. As lawyers, investigators and former associates close in, the story of his disappearance proves more complicated than anyone expects. John Grisham builds a legal thriller around deception, greed and a carefully guarded plan, asking how far a man might go to escape his life and what he would sacrifice to keep his freedom.
