#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
In a plush Virginia office, a rich, angry old man is furiously rewriting his will. With his death just hours away, Troy Phelan wants to send a message to his children, his ex-wives, and his minions—a message that will touch off a vicious legal battle and transform dozens of lives. Because Troy Phelan’s new will names a sole surprise heir to his eleven-billion-dollar fortune: a mysterious woman named Rachel Lane, a missionary living deep in the jungles of Brazil.
Enter the lawyers. Nate O’Riley is fresh out of rehab, a disgraced corporate attorney handpicked for his last job: to find Rachel Lane at any cost. As Phelan’s family circles like vultures in D.C., Nate goes crashing through the Brazilian jungle, entering a world where money means nothing, where death is just one misstep away, and where a woman—pursued by enemies and friends alike—holds a stunning surprise of her own.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from John Grisham’s Sycamore Row.

Summary
Overall An other great book by John Grisham. From begining to end, this book will have you engaged. It starts with the death of a very wealthy man, that basically hated his family, and in his will he established that all his fortune will pass to an illegitimate daughter who is a missionary in Brazil. It paints a very good detailed
description of each character. I highly recommend this book.
