Very slow start but overall Good read

The first half was written by Grisham and was a page turner. Abruptly a second writer took over the writing and screwed it up. What a piece of beetle dung.

I have read several books buy this Author and really enjoy his style of writing. This was a good read although I did not like how it just finished without closer on the many topics in the midst of the story. Gillybocargo

Learned about strip mining for coal. Sad situation.

Plain Jane, flat laid out, unembellished raw honesty, looking not for a way out, but for a breath of life after cessation thereof. Finally a ray of light in the midst of total darkness.

Couldn't put it down!

Great Read 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Excellent read from beginning to end. By the end I couldn’t stop reading until I finished the book. You feel you really know the characters and hope and cheer for the good guys and want the bad guys to go down.

I’ve been a big fan of Grisham’s work for decades, but this one disappointed me. The characters seemed more like annoying stereotypes than real people, and the plot was relatively predictable.

Too much wokeness, which is any.
