 | The Brethren by John Grisham, Michael Beck A trio of federal judges--so-called the Brethren--are serving time in a minimum security federal prison. While writing briefs, handling cases for other inmates, practicing law without a license, and maintaining jailhouse justice has them comfortably occupied behind bars, a mail scam scheme that entails blackmailing rich, closeted gay men has them rolling in cash. But when the group`s lucrative plan suddenly goes awry, involving a presidential candidate backed by the director of the CIA, the Brethren finds that its lack of freedom might be its only protection. While THE BRETHREN features Grisham`s usual stock of faulty lawyers and their questionable legal ethics, this book represents the author`s first venture into the political thriller arena. Also, unlike Grisham`s previous novels, readers won`t find an idealistic, heroic protagonist here. With a complete cast of shady characters, THE BRETHREN is not Grisham`s usual fictional public service announcement but instead a genuine page-turner, using black humor as its primary weapon.
