The 500 by Matthew Quirk 323 pages

Mike Ford seems to land THE dream job after finishing Harvard Law School. He had great grades, but is saddled with a crippling debt, the medical bills caused by his mother's illness prior to her death. His job for a powerful Washington based consulting company promises a great salary. He finds the house of his dreams and ends of working with the girl of his dreams. So, what could go wrong? It turns out that the work is dirty, even dirtier than the crimes committed by his father and brother. The clients looking for governmental favors are sometimes guilty of horrific crimes. The higher ups expect him to do the impossible and the immoral deeds.The pace is breathless, the action dynamic and the plot twists come quick. A great summer read.
