Genre: Thriller
Simon Latch is a small town lawyer with a struggling practice, a faithful assistant of 12 years (Matilda), 3 kids, and, unfortunately, marital problems which will probably result in divorce.
One day, 85 year old Eleanor Barnett walked into the office needing a “simple” will.
After questioning her, Simon understood that a simple will would not be sufficient to protect the wealth that needs protecting.
On his own, meaning Matilda was kept out of the loop, Simon crafted a will for Eleanor that satisfied her needs and, of course, his.
After a car accident sent Eleanor to the hospital, Simon’s world changed for the worse, and……
Oh, to find out what happens…you will have to read the book. 🙂
“The Widow” is a terrific, fast read, by the master of legal fiction….John Grisham.
I LOVED it!
