As long as John Grisham writes novels, Michael Beck needs to narrate them! His command of the southern dialect in all its nuances is absolutely amazing and helps carry this audio book through some pretty lengthy sidebars that otherwise might prove just a little bit tedious. Tracking the tale of two families that diverge from their origins on "The Point," it's something of a saga, but not without its certain attractions.

Great story and well done. Enjoyed. One of Grisham’s better books.

This book was difficult for me. In the beginning, it was as if someone was reading a textbook to me. Very dry and informative. But the information was intriguing so I was compelled to continue. In short, the story has heft but good gracious, it’s not the most absorbingly written novel by John Grisham. It was like chewing a tough piece of meat to get the protein.

The narrator was excellent. The story line was begun and equally well developed. The subject matter was also quite interesting, a page out of Southern history that I was previously unaware of.

Really enjoyed this book.

Given that all Grisham novels are held to such an astronomically high standard of excellence, this book fails to hit that mark. It felt as though it was written as part of some contractual obligation to a publishing house to produce a certain number of books in a specific time frame. Nonetheless, it is still worth reading if for no other reason than to support this wonderful author in appreciation for his work.

My husband and I enjoyed listening to this book, waiting to see what happens to each of the characters

not his best: so many of his other books are better!

Great story and narrator
