Roland Ford - once a cop, then a marine, now a private investigator - is good at finding people. But when he’s asked to locate an Air Force veteran who’s escaped from a mental institution, he realizes he’s been drawn into something deep and dark. What he doesn’t know is why a shroud of secrecy hangs over the disappearance of Clay Hickman - and why he’s getting a different story from everyone involved. In a flash, what began as just a job becomes a life-or-death obsession for Ford.

Political statement
Revisado: 12-26-18
This book is just a political statement regarding torture during the Iraq war.
Predictable and boring.

The year is 2008 and Samantha Kofer's career at a huge Wall Street law firm is on the fast track - until the recession hits and she gets downsized, furloughed, escorted out of the building. Samantha, though, is one of the "lucky" associates. She's offered an opportunity to work at a legal aid clinic for one year without pay, after which there would be a slim chance that she'd get her old job back. In a matter of days Samantha moves from Manhattan to Brady, Virginia, population 2,200, in the heart of Appalachia, a part of the world she has only read about.

Any additional comments?
Grisham normally has interesting stories with lots of well-crafted plans, heroes, and villains.
The only villain in this story seems to be the "coal companies" but our heroine doesn't take them on in the book, in fact she spends 99% of the book telling her friends that she is not cut out for this work and is going back to New York. In the last few minutes of the book she changes her mind.
This story has no drama, no real plot and no resolution of the "wrongs" that have been created by the coal companies and the murder of one of the stories characters.
Really terrible. What a waste of time. If I see another book like this from Grisham I'll assume he is off my list of authors.
