Read John Grisham’s The Reckoning. Not one of his best. In the end the story is tragic and miserable. In the middle is a long detailed description of the experience of American soldiers captured by the Japanese in the Philippines. Grisham is clearly fascinated by the history. It isn’t clear what it adds to the story of why a returned soldier murdered the Methodist minister in town. I usually like Grisham’s novels a lot but this one isn’t memorable. On the other hand it is really long so you get your money’s worth.
