Bleachers allows Grisham fans to view another side of this author's writings. This book takes a nostalgic look at a small town with colorful characters that all reflect on how times change. Although readers never "meet" Eddie Rake, his story is told through his former players and you will feel the love-hate attitude that these young men have for their former coach. The entire story surrounds the "deathwatch" of Eddie Rake while those who were affected by Rake, reflect upon their lives-something many do when someone of substantial meaning passes from our lives. The book was thought-provoking and told in a way that keeps the reader pressed to the pages, something only an excellent storyteller like Grisham can achieve.
