Best-selling author John Grisham doesn't have much time to waste as he works on his fifth novel. "I'm up to my ears in `The Chamber,' trying to meet a Dec. 31 deadline," Grisham told The Memphis Commercial Appeal. "The Chamber" is to be published by Doubleday on May 25. The book returns his characters to the familiar setting of Memphis, Tenn., and a new environment, Mississippi's Death Row. "The Chamber" would be the fourth of Grisham's five books to make it to the screen. The others are "The Firm," "The Pelican Brief" and "The Client."
