The Firm Book Description
When Mitch McDeere signed on with Bendini, Lambert & Locke of Memphis, he thought that he and his beautiful wife, Abby, were on their way.
The firm leased him a BMW, paid off his school loans, arranged a mortgage, and hired the McDeeres a decorator.
Mitch should have remembered what his brother Ray — doing fifteen years in a Tennessee jail — already knew: You never get nothing for nothing.
Now the FBI has the lowdown on Mitch’s firm and needs his help. Mitch is caught between a rock and a hard place, with no choice — if he wants to live.
