Mehukkaan kiemuraisessa lakijännärissä lapsuudenystävistä tulee vihollisia.” John Grisham on tarinankertojana suunnilleen paras joka meillä on.” – The New York Times Book Review. Keith ja Hugh, kaksi 60-luvun poikaa joita yhdistää baseball ja kotipaikka Biloxi, satamakaupunki Mississippissä Meksikonlahden rannalla. Mitäpä siitä, että kaverusten isät kulkevat lain eri puolilla – Biloxi on nautinnonhaluisten lainkiertäjien keidas, jossa hyvä ja paha ovat aina punoutuneet mutkikkaasti yhteen. Keithin isä on kuuluisa lakimies, Hugh taas on paikallisen rikollispomon poika. Kohtalokas isku oikeustaloon vaatii jokaista valitsemaan puolensa, ja vuosien kuluttua vieraantuneilla ystävyksillä on edessään lopullinen suuri kohtaaminen. John Grishamin 47 peräkkäistä bestselleriä on käännetty liki 50 kielelle, uusimpina Tuomarin lista ja Aika armahtaa, josta HBO valmistelee sarjaa. Grisham on saanut Yhdysvaltain kongressin kirjallisuuspalkinnon ja kahdesti Harper Leen palkinnon lakiaiheisesta fiktiosta. Hän tutkii romaaneissaan usein oikeusjärjestelmän sisäisiä ongelmakohtia. Grisham asuu maatilalla Virginiassa.www.jgrisham.com.

Tälle listalle kukaan ei halua nimeään. Tuomarin lista jatkaa Ilmiantaja-romaanista (2017) tutun juristin Lacy Stoltzin tarinaa. Piinaavassa trillerissä Lacy on jälleen lainsuojattomantuomarin kannoilla. Asianajaja Lacy Stoltz on sarjamurhaajan jäljillä. Kaikki johtolangat vievät samaan suuntaan, mutta todisteita on mahdotonta löytää. Murhaaja on älykäs, kärsivällinen ja aina yhden askelen edellä poliiseja. Hän tuntee todistusaineiston tutkintavaiheet, poliisin toimintatavat ja lain kiemurat. Lacyn kauhistukseksi epäilykset kohdistuvat arvostettuun tuomariin. Tällä on lista nimiä ihmisistä, jotka ovat tehneet häntä kohtaan väärin. Tuomarin listalle päätyminen tarkoittaa varmaa kuolemaa, ja Lacyn on pidettävä varansa, ettei hänen nimeään löydy listalta seuraavana. 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.

Legenden John Grisham ønsker deg velkommen tilbake til Camino Island, der et drap midt i en voldsom orkan kan vise seg å være den perfekte forbrytelse ... Det blåser opp til orkan utenfor Floridas kyst, og det voldsomme uværet sikter rett mot Camino Island. Bokhandler Bruce Cable forbereder et besøk av bestselgerforfatter Mercer Mann, og tar sjansen på å bli værende på øya mens store deler av befolkningen evakuerer til fastlandet. Han blir vitne da orkanen treffer: Ødeleggelsene er enorme, veiene ufremkommelige, hjem ødelagt og flere mennesker mister livet. Et av ofrene er Nelson Kerr, thrillerforfatter og venn av Bruce. Nelsons skader kan tyde på at stormen ikke kan ha forårsaket hans død, men det lokale politiet er dårlig rustet til å håndtere saken i kjølvannet av uværet. Selv begynner Bruce å lure på om de lyssky karakterene i Nelsons romaner kan være mer ekte enn fiktive. På Nelsons PC ligger manuskriptet til hans nye roman. Kan nøkkelen til drapet ligge der? Vindene på Camino Islander både sjarmerende og spennende.

Hela stan tycks överens om vilket straff Drew ska få – kan Jake få juryn att se på händelsen på ett annat sätt? Jake Brigance har haft huvudrollen i "Juryn" och "I mullbärsträdets skugga". "Tid för barmhärtighet" är den tredje fristående boken där Jake försöker bringa rättvisa i en grym värld.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From "a legal literary legend" (USA Today) comes a gripping thriller of two childhood friends who find themselves on opposite sides of the law as adults, with all of John Grisham's trademark twists and turns. For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, and drugs to contract killings. The vice was controlled by small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumored to be members of the Dixie Mafia. Keith Rudy and Hugh Malco grew up in Biloxi in the sixties and were childhood friends, as well as Little League all-stars. But as teenagers, their lives took them in different directions. Keith's father became a legendary prosecutor, determined to "clean up the Coast." Hugh's father became the "Boss" of Biloxi's criminal underground. Keith went to law school and followed in his father's footsteps. Hugh preferred the nightlife and worked in his father's clubs. The two families were headed for a showdown--one that would ultimately happen in a courtroom. Life itself hangs in the balance in The Boys from Biloxi, a sweeping saga rich with history and with a large cast of unforgettable characters.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER- John Grisham is the acknowledged master of the legal thriller. In his first collection of novellas, law is a common thread, but America's favorite storyteller has several surprises in store. "Homecoming" takes us back to Ford County, the fictional setting of many of John Grisham's unforgettable stories. Jake Brigance is back, but he's not in the courtroom. He's called upon to help an old friend, Mack Stafford, a former lawyer in Clanton, who three years earlier became a local legend when he stole money from his clients, divorced his wife, filed for bankruptcy, and left his family in the middle of the night, never to be heard from again--until now. Now Mack is back, and he's leaning on his old pals, Jake and Harry Rex, to help him return. His homecoming does not go as planned. In "Strawberry Moon," we meet Cody Wallace, a young death row inmate only three hours away from execution. His lawyers can't save him, the courts slam the door, and the governor says no to a last-minute request for clemency. As the clock winds down, Cody has one final request. The "Sparring Partners" are the Malloy brothers, Kirk and Rusty, two successful young lawyers who inherited a once prosperous firm when its founder, their father, was sent to prison. Kirk and Rusty loathe each other, and speak to each other only when necessary. As the firm disintegrates, the resulting fiasco falls into the lap of Diantha Bradshaw, the only person the partners trust. Can she save the Malloys, or does she take a stand for the first time in her career and try to save herself? By turns suspenseful, hilarious, powerful, and moving, these are three of the greatest stories John Grisham has ever told.
