About “The Whistler”

Lacy Stoltz, an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct, is assigned a complaint filed by a lawyer named Greg Myers, who claims to know of a Florida judge involved in stealing vast sums of money from a casino built on Native American land. The judge is said to be receiving a share of the profits from the casino, which was financed by the Coast Mafia, and Greg Myers seeks to expose the corruption under Florida's whistleblower law.

Praise for “The Whistler”

“Riveting . . . finely drawn . . . The Whistler centers on an elaborate conspiracy involving an Indian reservation, an organized crime syndicate and a crooked judge skimming a small fortune from the tribal casino’s monthly haul.”

— The New York Times Book Review

“A main character who’s a seriously appealing woman . . . a whistle-blower who secretly calls attention to corruption . . . a strong and frightening sense of place . . . Grisham’s on his game.”

— Janet Maslin, The New York Times

“Grisham’s latest involves the rich and powerful and an abuse of the justice system. Grisham novels are crowd-pleasers because he knows how to satisfy readers who want to see injustice crushed, and justice truly prevails for those who cannot buy influence.”

— Associated Press
