Written by: John Grisham

This book is composed by John Grisham. The book begins with the killing of two Supreme Court Justices, by the names of Rosenberg and Jensen.

The Pelican Brief is a very strong story in my opinion and was some influence in my life. The characters are developed fairly well and Darby and Grey make a great team. The book made you think about whom you can and can’t trust, and also showed some skills of being sneaky.

I think John Grisham’s goal while writing this novel was to strike suspense, fear, happiness, and enjoyment into the hearts of those who read his novel. I know I experienced all those while reading the novel.

The topics in the novel are government conspiracy, without thinking about the topic; the reader wouldn’t understand the novel. John Grisham’s books are hard to follow if you don’t pay attention, and when a reader does, they are hooked. John Grisham has a way of tricking the reader with suspense to stay up late reading, to finish the book, and learn the truth.
