The Whistler (Spanish Edition)

The Most Corrupt Judge in History, the Mafia, and a Young Investigator with a Secret Informant - An Exhilarating New Thriller from America's Favorite Author: John Grisham.

"The best living thriller writer."- Ken Follett

Lacy Stoltz, a young investigator and attorney in Florida, is tasked with handling complaints related to judicial misconduct. After nine years on the job, she has learned that most issues stem from incompetence rather than corruption. That is, until a corruption case lands on her desk.

Greg Myers, a previously disbarred lawyer, claims to have uncovered a Florida judge who has stolen more money than all other crooked judges combined - not just in Florida, but throughout the history of the United States. This judge was secretly involved in the construction of a massive casino on Native American lands, with the mafia financing the project and reaping a substantial monthly cut. The judge, too, has been pocketing a sizable portion of the profits, turning a blind eye to the entire operation.

Now, Greg wants to put an end to this corrupt arrangement. His sole client, someone privy to the truth, is willing to expose the scheme and collect millions under Florida law. When the case is assigned to Lacy, she immediately senses the potential danger. Danger, however, is one thing; deadly is quite another.

We entrust our judges to uphold the law with honesty and wisdom, as the integrity of the judicial system rests upon their actions. But what happens when a judge becomes corrupted, bending the law and taking bribes? Lacy Stoltz, an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct, is about to find out in this high-stakes thriller that delves into the darkest corners of the Sunshine State.
