JOHN GRISHAM is the author of thirty-three novels, one work of nonfiction, a collection of stories, and six novels for young readers.
John Grisham delivers a classic legal thriller–-with a twist.
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.

一个致力于为被冤枉入狱的无辜囚犯脱罪的律师和NGO组织为两个陈年旧案成功翻案,情节有意思但略繁琐
评分感觉Grisham这几年的小说质量有所回升,至少能吸引人读下去。有些小说有些虎头蛇尾,这部还算比较完整。Grisham也是尽量挖掘各种不同的律师,但是还是有些技穷了。。一年一部,不容易啊
评分挺严肃的,没有感觉有多悬疑,也就那样吧。但是对于学法律的我来说,还行,也算了解一些词汇了
评分I never knew much about and had much interested in wrongful conviction back then as a criminology student. But this book changed my opinion about it. A very good read and respect what they do.
