posted in: Mississippi News | 0

Over 30 years after “The Firm” put John Grisham on the map as one of America’s best fiction writers, the Mississippi native is releasing a sequel to his famous novel.

“The Exchange,” which is set to be released on Oct. 17, will reunite readers with attorney and whistleblower Mitch McDeere. During a recent appearance on CBS Mornings, Grisham gave a little insight into where McDeere and his wife, Abby, are now.

“Mitch is 41 years old. He’s a lawyer in Manhattan. He’s a partner in the biggest law firm in the world. He’s a very successful international lawyer, who goes all over the world putting out fires for his clients. He’s very successful” Grisham explained. “Abby is a book publisher in Manhattan. They have twin sons and life is very good. And then, Mitch takes a case that he probably wishes he hasn’t taken, and his life gets very complicated.”

Over 7 million copies of “The Firm” have been sold worldwide since its release in 1991. In 1993, it was turned into a movie starring Tom Cruise before later being adapted into a television series in 2012.

“The Exchange” can be pre-ordered here.
