The Broker by John Grisham

Oh, oh, a new John Grisham Book - The Broker is out. Now I know that these are kinda trashy but... can I resist buying it!? I'm kind of stuck bored in the middle of John Fante's "Ask the Dust" at the moment.

With fourteen years left on a twenty-year sentence, notorious Washington powerbroker Joel Blackman receives a surprise pardon from a lame duck President. He is smuggled out of the country on a military cargo plane, given a new identity, and tucked away in a small town in Italy. But Backman has serious enemies from his past. As the CIA watches him closely, the question is not whether he will be killed, but rather who will kill him first.
