The Pelican Brief.

GoodReads Synopsis-- In suburban Georgetown, a killer's Reeboks whisper on the front floor of a posh home... In a seedy D.C. video house, a patron is swiftly garroted to death... The next day, America learns that two of its Supreme Court justices have been assassinated. And in New Orleans, a young law student prepares a legal brief... To Darby Shaw it was no more than a legal shot in the dark, a brilliant guess. To the Washington establishment it was political dynamite. Suddenly Darby is witness to a murder -- a murder intended for her. Going underground, she finds there is only one person she can trust -- an ambitious reporter after a news break hotter than Watergate -- to help her piece together the deadly puzzle. Somewhere between the bayous of Louisiana and the White House's inner sanctums, a violent cover-up is being engineered. For someone has read Darby's brief. Someone who will stop at nothing to destroy the evidence of an unthinkable crime.

My Thoughts-- I didn't love this book as much as I was hoping to.  I love John Grisham, and I loved the movie version of The Pelican Brief.  But for some reason, the book wasn't nearly as exciting or tense as I had hoped.  It was still very good, so perhaps my expectations were too high.  Overall, it was very enjoyable.  I just wish that I hadn't already seen and loved the movie.
