NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - One juror changed the verdict. What if she was wrong? From the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of The Imitation Game and bestselling author of The Last Days of Night. . . . An ID Book Club Selection - In development as a limited series starring and executive produced by Amy Adams "Exhilarating . . . a fiendishly slippery game of cat-and-mouse suspense and a provocative, urgent inquiry into American justice (and injustice) in the twenty-first century."--A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window It's the most sensational case of the decade. Fifteen-year-old Jessica Silver, heiress to a billion-dollar real estate fortune, vanishes on her way home from school, and her teacher, Bobby Nock, a twenty-five-year-old African American man, is the prime suspect. The subsequent trial taps straight into America's most pressing preoccupations: race, class, sex, law enforcement, and the lurid sins of the rich and famous. It's an open-and-shut case for the prosecution, and a quick conviction seems all but guaranteed--until Maya Seale, a young woman on the jury, convinced of Nock's innocence, persuades the rest of the jurors to return the verdict of not guilty, a controversial decision that will change all their lives forever. Flash forward ten years. A true-crime docuseries reassembles the jury, with particular focus on Maya, now a defense attorney herself. When one of the jurors is found dead in Maya's hotel room, all evidence points to her as the killer. Now, she must prove her own innocence--by getting to the bottom of a case that is far from closed. As the present-day murder investigation entwines with the story of what really happened during their deliberation, told by each of the jurors in turn, the secrets they have all been keeping threaten to come out--with drastic consequences for all involved.

One jury member changed the verdict. What if she was wrong? From the screenwriter of THE IMITATION GAME comes a knockout thriller that reads as 12 Angry Men meets Serial.

A brilliant novel from the Oscar-winning screenwriter, soon to be a major motion picture starring Eddie Redmayne

From the Oscar-winning screenwriter comes a superb historical thriller, based on a true story, set in 1880s New York.

New York, 1888. The miracle of electric light is in its infancy, and untold glory (and untold riches) await the man who can power the nation with this new technology. Thomas Edison, "the wizard of Menlo Park," has won the race to the patent office and is now suing his only remaining rival, George Westinghouse, for infringement for the unheard of sum of a billion dollars. To defend himself, Westinghouse makes a surprising choice in his attorney: he hires an untested twenty-six-year-old fresh out of Columbia Law School named Paul Cravath. The task facing Cravath is beyond daunting--Edison quickly shows himself an implacable and crafty opponent who will lie, cheat and betray (and worse) in order to win. To defeat Thomas Edison seems impossible, yet this young, unknown attorney shares with his famous opponent a compulsion to win at all costs. How will he do it? Paul, a man of principle, starts making compromises he never imagined. And as he takes greater and greater risks, he'll find that everyone is playing their own game, and no one is quite who they seem.

Lontoo, 1893. Arthur Conan Doyle valmistautuu täyskäännökseen urallaan. Kirjailija on kyllästynyt kaikkitietävään, naurettavaa hattua käyttävään Sherlock Holmesiin. Vaihtoehdot ovat vähissä: hänen on murhattava salapoliisinsa. Lukijat raivostuvat suositun salapoliisin kuolemasta, ja Conan Doyle on itse vähällä päästä hengestään, kun kirjepommi räjäyttää hänen työpöytänsä kappaleiksi. Lisäksi kirjekuoresta löytyy nuoren naisen surmasta kertova lehtileike, ja epäilykset heräävät: voisiko pommin lähettäjä olla myös naisen murhaaja? New York, 2010. Harold White on juuri hyväksytty arvostetun Sherlockian-seuran jäseneksi. Seurassa kohistaan hurjasta löydöstä – yksi jäsenistä on saanut käsiinsä Arthur Conan Doylen kadonneen päiväkirjan. Sherlock-harrastajat odottavat kuumeisesti miestä esittelemään löytöään, mutta tätä ei kuulu. Viimein hän löytyy kuolleena hotellihuoneestaan. Päiväkirja on kadonnut, ja seinälle on kirjoitettu verellä: ”Elementary.” Kuolema Sherlock-seurassa on kutkuttava mysteeriromaani, joka liikkuu viktoriaanisen Lontoon ja nykypäivän välillä. Fiktiivinen rikostarina kiertyy kaikkien tunteman kirjailijan elämän todellisten tapahtumien ympärille: Arthur Conan Doyle antoi Sherlock Holmesin pudota jyrkänteeltä vuonna 1893 julkaistussa tarinassa Viimeinen tapaus. Pian tämän jälkeen hän jahtasi oikeasti murhaajaa Scotland Yardin mukana Lontoossa. Doyle palautti sankarihahmon henkiin myöhemmin vuonna 1901. Syy tähän ei toistaiseksi ole kuitenkaan selvinnyt, sillä kirjailijan tarkasti pitämän päiväkirjan merkinnät kyseiseltä ajalta ovat kadonneet. Vuonna 2004 eräs Sherlock-tutkija ilmoitti löytäneensä puuttuvan päiväkirjan, mutta pian tutkija löydettiin murhattuna, kuristettuna omiin kengännauhoihinsa. Ei tarvitse olla Sherlock Holmes päätelläkseen, että näistä aineksista syntyy kirja, joka pitää lukijan otteessaan.

Hurtling from present day New York to Victorian London, The Sherlockian weaves the history of Sherlock Holmes and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle into an inspired and entertaining double mystery that proves to be anything but elementary. In December 1893, Sherlock Holmes-adoring Londoners eagerly opened their Strand magazines, anticipating the detective's next adventure, only to find the unthinkable: his creator, Arthur Conan Doyle, had killed their hero off. London spiraled into mourning-crowds sported black armbands in grief-and railed against Conan Doyle as his assassin. Then in 1901, just as abruptly as Conan Doyle had murdered Holmes in The Final Problem, he resurrected him. Though the writer kept detailed diaries of his days and work, Conan Doyle never explained this sudden change of heart. After his death, one of his journals from the interim period was discovered to be missing, and in the decades since, has never been found.... Or has it? When literary researcher Harold White is inducted into the preeminent Sherlock Holmes enthusiast society, The Baker Street Irregulars, he never imagines he's about to be thrust onto the hunt for the holy grail of Holmes-ophiles: the missing diary. But when the world's leading Doylean scholar is found murdered in his hotel room, it is Harold-using wisdom and methods gleaned from countless detective stories-who takes up the search, both for the diary and for the killer.
