It's a deadly game of blackmail. And they're making him play. Kyle McAvoy is one of the outstanding legal students of his generation: he's good looking, has a brilliant mind and a glittering future ahead of him. But he has a secret from his past, a secret that threatens to destroy his entire life. One night that secret catches up with him in the form of a deeply compromising video of the incident that haunts him. Kyle realises that he no longer owns his own future - that he must do as his blackmailers tell him, or the video will be made public, with all the unpleasant consequences. What price do they demand for Kyle's secret? It is for Kyle to take a job in New York as an associate at the largest law firm in the world. Kyle won't be working for this company, but against it - passing on the secrets of it's biggest trial to date, a dispute worth billions of dollars to the victor. Full of twists and turns and reminiscent of The Firm, The Associate is vintage John Grisham.

Zustand: Bueno. : El último thriller legal del autor número uno en ventas internacionales, John Grisham. Es un juego mortal de chantaje, y lo están obligando a jugar. Kyle McAvoy es uno de los estudiantes de derecho más destacados de su generación: es guapo, tiene una mente brillante y un futuro brillante por delante. Pero tiene un secreto de su pasado, un secreto que amenaza con destruir su incipiente carrera y, posiblemente, toda su vida. Una noche, ese secreto lo alcanza en forma de unos hombres malos en un callejón oscuro; tienen un video profundamente comprometedor del incidente que lo atormenta. Los hombres le dejan claro a Kyle que ya no es dueño de su propio futuro, que debe hacer lo que le digan, o el video se hará público, con todas las consecuencias desagradables. ¿Qué precio exigen por el secreto de Kyle? Extrañamente, es para que Kyle haga exactamente lo que cualquier joven abogado ambicioso querría hacer: aceptar un trabajo en Nueva York como asociado en el bufete de abogados más grande del mundo, un trabajo que está increíblemente bien pagado y, con horas gigantescas y facturación escandalosa, podría conducir a la sociedad y una fortuna. Pero Kyle no estará trabajando para la empresa, sino en contra de ella, transmitiendo los secretos del mayor juicio de la empresa hasta la fecha, una disputa entre dos contratistas de defensa que vale miles de millones de dólares para el vencedor. Ahora Kyle está atrapado entre las fuerzas criminales que lo manipulan y el FBI, a quienes les encantaría desenmascarar la conspiración. ¿Será suficiente su intelecto, astucia y valentía para sacarlo de un dilema imposible? Lleno de giros y vueltas y reminiscente de The Firm, The Associate es John Grisham en su máxima expresión.
