Kyle McAvoy grew up in his father’s small-town law office in
York, Pennsylvania. He excelled in college, was elected
editor-in-chief of The Yale Law Journal, and his future has
limitless potential. But Kyle has a secret, a dark one, an
episode from college that he has tried to forget. The
secret, though, falls into the hands of the wrong people,
and Kyle is forced to take a job he doesn’t want—even though
it’s a job most law students can only dream about.
Three months after leaving Yale, Kyle becomes an associate
at the largest law firm in the world, where, in addition to
practicing law, he is expected to lie, steal, and take part
in a scheme that could send him to prison, if not get him
killed.
With an unforgettable cast of characters and villains—from
Baxter Tate, a drug-addled trust fund kid and possible
rapist, to Dale, a pretty but seemingly quiet former math
teacher who shares Kyle’s “cubicle” at the law firm, to two
of the most powerful and fiercely competitive defense
contractors in the country—and featuring all the twists and
turns that have made John Grisham the most popular
storyteller in the world, THE ASSOCIATE is vintage Grisham.
