Description: Thirty-six-year-old Paddy Moran is a newly licensed, street-smart attorney with big dreams and aspirations in the glitzy meritocracy of Houston, Texas. He survives rough bumps and ethical challenges and begins to claw his way to the upper echelons of the city's divorce bar. Through smart connections and his own brash moxie, he wins two high-profile cases that put him on the success trajectory. But Paddy is soon faced with some difficult choices and the consequences of his ambitions. A dual-track narrative, The Best People also follows the rise and fall and rise again of Pilar Galt, a beautiful, intelligent single mother as she confronts her own choices in her climb to the top. Her path intersects with Paddy's, eventually converging with his during a pivotal time in his career when he must decide what he's willing to do to be the best at his game. This is Houston after Enron and before the devastation of Hurricane Harvey and the uplifting World Series championship, where clever legal maneuvering, big law firm politics, and judicial corruption meet the country-club set, the wealthy elite, and many other larger-than-life characters. In his debut novel, author Marc Grossberg, a native Houstonian who's practiced law in Houston for more than fifty years, offers a world in which you can't always tell who the best people are.
