The Partner (BBC Radio Collection: Crimes and Thrillers)

This is the John Grisham's number one "New York Times" bestseller read by William Dufris. They found him in a small town in Brazil, with a new name, Danilo Silva, and his appearance changed by plastic surgery. The search had taken four years and cost three-and-a-half million dollars. The man they were about to kidnap had once had another life as Patrick S. Lanigan, which had ended in a car crash. He had been a partner at an up-and-coming law firm, with a pretty wife, a new daughter, and a bright future. Six weeks after his death, $90 million had disappeared from the law firm. It was then that his partners knew he was still alive, and the long pursuit had begun...

Literary slugger John Grisham returns with a story about-- surprise!--a lawyer in trouble. Patrick Lanigan had been a young partner in a prominent Southern law firm. He had a beautiful wife, a new baby girl, and a bright future. Then one winter night Patrick was trapped in a burning car; the casket they buried held nothing but ashes.

A short distance away, Patrick watched his own burial then fled. A fortune was stolen from his ex-firm's offshore account. And Patrick ran, covering his tracks the whole way.

But, now, they've found him.
