The Rooster Bar

JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED.

You can't break the law if it's already broken.

Mark, Todd and Zola have yet to graduate from law school - they all have a mountain of debt and no promising future.

When they discover they're victims of an elaborate scam, they decide to do something about it. Their local drinking spot, The Rooster Bar, is the perfect place to plan their revenge: pose as fully trained lawyers, take on easy cases and pay off their debts.

But sometimes even the simplest plans can get out of hand: and soon they'll be taking on the FBI...

Grisham writes in such an inventive spirit . . . [a] buoyant, mischievous thriller . . .
