The Firm (Random House Large Print)
D.W. Moffett uses his youthful voice to outstanding effect in this excellent abridgment of Grisham"s bestselling thriller about a Harvard Law grad aggressively recruited by a curiously obscure firm. "We"re small and very selective... we screened over two thousand third-year law students at the best schools. Only one letter was sent." They"ve decided he"s their man and to get him they offer top dollar, dangle a BMW, and woo his wife with offers impossible to refuse. But as the wide-eyed youngsters soon discover, there"s a catch. Moffett gives an excellent performance, bringing the story to life with vibrant and believable characterizations and a smooth, knowing narrative. (Running time: 3 hours, 2 cassettes) --George Laney
