Interview: John Grisham Proves Yet Again That He Is the King of Legal Thrillers
The Widow

While its exploration of complex family dynamics and ethical quandaries mark a departure from Grisham’s emphasis on courtroom drama, its setting in Ford County connects The Summons to several other works by the author, creating a rich, interconnected fictional world.
