Pigs, A Trial Lawyer's Story was published in 2003 and has become another regional favorite. Compared by readers and reviewers to Turow and Grisham, this tale of love, the law, and choices made remains a frank and thoughtful look at life in a Minnesota small town amidst the chaos of marital discord and high-powered civil litigation.

Review: I always look forward to a new book by Mark Munger, and that's partly because he's so willing to experiment with new genres. Here's a story about a trial lawyer that gives rise to the philosophical question: Is it easier to be a good person if you've never been tempted to stray from the paths of righteousness? It's great, it's intriguing, it's well worth reading. Thunder Bay Chronicle-Journal
