John Grisham

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "The perfect crime scene . . . in the type of wild but smart caper that Grisham's readers love."--Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing Just as Bruce Cable's Bay Books is preparing for the return of bestselling author Mercer Mann, Hurricane Leo veers from its predicted course and heads straight for the island. Florida's governor orders a mandatory evacuation, and most residents board up their houses and flee to the mainland, but Bruce decides to stay and ride out the storm. The hurricane is devastating: homes and condos are leveled, hotels and storefronts ruined, streets flooded, and a dozen people lose their lives. One of the apparent victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce's and an author of thrillers. But the nature of Nelson's injuries suggests that the storm wasn't the cause of his death: He has suffered several suspicious blows to the head. Who would want Nelson dead? The local police are overwhelmed in the aftermath of the storm and ill equipped to handle the case. Bruce begins to wonder if the shady characters in Nelson's novels might be more real than fictional. And somewhere on Nelson's computer is the manuscript of his new novel. Could the key to the case be right there--in black and white? As Bruce starts to investigate, what he discovers between the lines is more shocking than any of Nelson's plot twists--and far more dangerous.

Rooster Bar av John Grisham er en leken, spennende og interessant juridisk thriller. Grishams beviser nok en gang at han er overlegen i sjangeren. De skulle forandre verden. I stedet finner Mark, Todd og Zola ut at jusutdannelsen de har finansiert med høye studielån er fullstendig ubrukelig. Eieren av skolen viser seg å være en upålitelig milliardær, som også eier banken de har har tatt opp lån i. Men noe har de lært underveis, og på Rooster Bar begynner de å planlegge hvordan de skal ta rotta på skolens ledelse.

On aika tappaa. On aika tuomita. Nyt on aika armahtaa. Grishamin uran tähän asti kenties henkilökohtaisin ja väkevin trilleri. On aika tappaa ja Perintö -romaaneista tuttu idealisti, Jake Brigance, puolustaa jälleen puolustuskyvytöntä. Mississippin osavaltion pikkukaupunki Clanton vuonna 1990. Kuusitoistavuotiasta poikaa syytetään äitinsä poikaystävän, paikallisen poliisin, murhasta. Monet toivovat nopeaa oikeudenkäyntiä ja kuolemanrangaistusta, mutta piileekö tarinassa muutakin kuin mitä silmä näkee? Korruptiota, juonittelua, perheväkivaltaa. Vastakkain asettuvat kysymykset oikeudenmukaisuudesta ja uskollisuudesta. Tuomioistuin määrää puolustusasianajajaksi Jake Brigancen, joka puolustaessaan asiakastaan viimeiseen asti vaarantaa samalla sekä uransa että perheensä turvallisuuden. Yhdysvaltalainen John Grisham (s. 1955) on yksi maailman arvostetuimmista ja menestyneimmistä jännityskirjailijoista. Hän toimi vuosia asianajajana, ennen kuin antautui kokonaan kirjailijanuralle. Hänen läpimurtoteoksensa oli vuonna 1991 julkaistu The Firm (suom. Firma, 1992). Grishamin teosten keskeinen teema on oikeudenmukaisuus ja niissä taistellaan usein korruptiota ja ahneutta vastaan. Monet kirjoista on filmatisoitu ja niitä on käännetty kymmenille eri kielille.

Books are leather-bound, signed and numbered, with printed endpapers, gold stamping, a slipcase, and a ribbon marker. Jake Brigance, the protagonist of A Time to Kill, John Grisham's classic legal thriller is back. This time he's at the epicenter of a sensational murder trial that bitterly divides the citizens of Clanton, Mississippi. A Time to Kill is one of the most popular novels of our time. It established Jake as a classic American hero--a lawyer who seeks truth and justice at all costs, even when his life and reputation are on the line. Brigance returned in 2013's Sycamore Row, in which he once again found himself embroiled in a deeply divisive trial. Now, in A Time for Mercy, Jake is the court-appointed lawyer for Drew Gamble, a young man accused of murdering a local deputy. Many in Clanton want a swift trial and the death penalty, but Brigance sees it another way. Once he learns the details of the case, he realizes he has to do everything he can to save Drew--who is sixteen. Jake's commitment to the truth puts his career and the safety of his family at risk. Filled with all the courtroom machinations, small-town intrigues, and plot twists that have become the hallmarks of the master of the legal thriller, A Time for Mercy emphatically confirms John Grisham's reputation as America's favorite storyteller. There is a time to kill, a time for justice, and A TIME FOR MERCY.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - An idealistic lawyer makes dangerous enemies as he fights to free an innocent man sentenced to life in prison in this "suspenseful thriller mixed with powerful themes" (Associated Press). In the small Florida town of Seabrook, a young lawyer named Keith Russo was shot dead at his desk as he worked late one night. The killer left no clues. There were no witnesses, no one with a motive. But the police soon came to suspect Quincy Miller, a young Black man who was once a client of Russo's. Quincy was tried, convicted, and sent to prison for life. For twenty-two years he languished in prison, maintaining his innocence. But no one was listening. He had no lawyer, no advocate on the outside. In desperation, he writes a letter to Guardian Ministries, a small nonprofit run by Cullen Post, a lawyer who is also an Episcopal minister. Guardian accepts only a few innocence cases at a time. Cullen Post travels the country fighting wrongful convictions and taking on clients forgotten by the system. With Quincy Miller, though, he gets far more than he bargained for. Powerful, ruthless people murdered Keith Russo, and they do not want Quincy Miller exonerated. They killed one lawyer twenty-two years ago, and they will kill another without a second thought.
