A list of the top 15 mystery hardcover bestsellers for the week ending January 30, 2009 has been posted on the Hidden Staircase Mystery Books website.
The third between-the-numbers mystery featuring New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum, Plum Spooky by Janet Evanovich retains the top spot this week with some shuffling in the order among last week's top eight. But almost certainly this will change next week.
New this week at number 9 is John Grisham's latest legal thriller, The Associate, a sequel (of a sort) to his blockbuster novel The Firm. Kyle McAvoy is the associate, a young man grew up in his father’s small-town law office in York, Pennsylvania. He excelled in college, was elected editor-in-chief of The Yale Law Journal, and his future has limitless potential. But Kyle has a secret, a dark one, an episode from college that he has tried to forget. The secret, though, falls into the hands of the wrong people, and Kyle is forced to take a job he doesn’t want -- even though it’s a job most law students can only dream about. Three months after leaving Yale, Kyle becomes an associate at the largest law firm in the world, where, in addition to practicing law, he is expected to lie, steal, and take part in a scheme that could send him to prison, if not get him killed.
