#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From “a legal literary legend” (USA Today) comes a gripping thriller of two childhood friends who find themselves on opposite sides of the law as adults, with all of John Grisham’s trademark twists and turns.
For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, and drugs to contract killings. The vice was controlled by small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumored to be members of the Dixie Mafia.
Keith Rudy and Hugh Malco grew up in Biloxi in the sixties and were childhood friends, as well as Little League all-stars. But as teenagers, their lives took them in different directions. Keith’s father became a legendary prosecutor, determined to “clean up the Coast.” Hugh’s father became the “Boss” of Biloxi’s criminal underground. Keith went to law school and followed in his father’s footsteps. Hugh preferred the nightlife and worked in his father’s clubs. The two families were headed for a showdown—one that would ultimately happen in a courtroom.
Life itself hangs in the balance in The Boys from Biloxi, a sweeping saga rich with history and with a large cast of unforgettable characters.

Customers find the book well-written and among Grisham’s best recent novels, appreciating how the author demonstrates his storytelling mastery on every page. Moreover, the book provides a lot of history about the Biloxi area, with one customer noting how it captures the mystique of the region. However, the pacing receives mixed feedback, with some customers loving the pace while others find the beginning slow. Additionally, the story quality, character development, and emotional content also receive mixed reviews, with some finding it a captivating saga while others say it’s somewhat predictable, too many characters to keep straight, and too many graphic violent scenes.
