Product Description
Jake Brigance is back! The hero of A Time to Kill, one of the most popular novels of our time, returns in a courtroom drama that The New York Times says is "riveting" and "suspenseful."
Clanton, Mississippi. 1990. Jake Brigance finds himself embroiled in a
deeply divisive trial when the court appoints him attorney for Drew
Gamble, a timid sixteen-year-old boy accused of murdering a local
deputy. Many in Clanton want a swift trial and the death penalty, but
Brigance digs in and discovers that there is more to the story than
meets the eye. Jake’s fierce commitment to saving Drew from the gas
chamber puts his career, his financial security, and the safety of his
family on the line.
In what may be the most personal and
accomplished legal thriller of John Grisham’s storied career, we deepen
our acquaintance with the iconic Southern town of Clanton and the vivid
cast of characters that so many readers know and cherish. The result is a
richly rewarding novel that is both timely and timeless, full of wit,
drama, and—most of all—heart.
Bursting with all the courthouse
scheming, small-town intrigue, and stunning plot twists that have
become the hallmarks of the master of the legal thriller, A Time for Mercy is John Grisham’s most powerful courtroom drama yet.
There is a time to kill and a time for justice. Now comes A Time for Mercy.
