T.I.M.E. BOOK REVIEW
John Grisham has done it again... Do we really ever doubt he will?
An epic saga of two young boys from immigrant families who share a friendship as baseball All-Star hometown heroes... Told in a signature Grisham tone that walks the razor's edge of slow-building tension laced with historical events that keep you entangled in a story that feels both vintage and modern... Beautifully written with incredible detail that constantly keeps you wondering if this is a real-life true story. Yes, it is a work of fiction.
Always navigating controversial legal dilemmas that present the multi-dimensional challenges of delivering decisions that require clear-cut answers from circumstances filled with numerous variations. All while using legal guidelines that can never fully embrace the humanity of each person involved.
Perfect for thriller fans who read with the intention to learn something beyond their own experience...
Nothing touches my heart more than a story that encapsulates the waste of human potential... It is the ultimate rear-view mirror experience. And why I am so grateful to the authors who bring these stories to life.
My prayer is that we will read and learn... And hopefully, correct our course. Folks, can we really afford to waste human potential when our challenges are so great?...

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
In The Boys from Biloxi, John Grisham tells the story of two young boys, Hugh and Keith, who grow up as friends in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Both are third-generation grandsons of Croatian immigrants. The boys go to the same school and play on the same sports teams... Both earned hometown hero status as all-star baseball players as early as Little League. But when they get older, their lives start to take different paths as each dark secret emerges. Turning the new life choices each young man makes into a small-town magnum opus saga page-turner as a terrible crime unfolds.
The Boys from Biloxi is a slow-burn legal thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Grisham masterfully weaves together the story of two families who immigrated to and are struggling to make a life in America. The characters are richly drawn and the plot is full of twists and turns.
You won't be able to put this book down until you reach the very last page... And I dare you not to place this contender for best thriller books on your best crime novels shelf as well!
