A Time to Kill

De: John Grisham

Narrado por: Michael Beck

Clanton, Mississippi. The life of a 10-year-old black girl is shattered by two drunken and remorseless young men. The mostly white town reacts with shock and horror at the inhuman crime. Until her father acquires an assault rifle - and takes justice into his own outraged hands. For 10 days, with burning crosses and the crack of sniper fire spreading through the streets of Clanton, the nation sits spellbound as young defense attorney Jake Brigance struggles to save his client's life...and then his own....

Any additional comments?

BUT- I wanted to put one anyway. I know this book has been around for a long time. I think I saw the movie many, many years ago.

What a wonderfully written story right? The characters are all believable, the story is truly a reflection of the deep rooted racism in the south. The story is written so well that you can see a movie play out in your mind. You can see it. To me, this is what makes a story great.

The best part about this story is that it still can ring true today. Loved every minute.

Excellent Narrator!

A great book becomes even greater when Alexander Adams is the narrator. Bringing to each character a distinct voice and dialect, Adams makes you want to replay every chapter. I love audiobooks and first heard this particular version when I borrowed it from the library years ago. At that time they were on cassettes. Needless to say I was absolutely thrilled when I saw Audible.com had the same audiobook on its website ready to download. I could listen to the book over and over again; it's that good!

I highly recommend "A Time to Kill" narrated by Alexander Adams. You are sure to love it!!!

His best

I can’t believe that this was his first book and it didn’t sell!!! So well written and narrated. His characters are so southern and authentic. The narrator made this book come alive. I loved it.

Stunning

Just stunning,gripping and well written. Grisham's finest! Listen and you'll see. Won't regret it! xx

Great read

Couldn’t put it down!! One of Grisham’s best just as you would expect. On to the next.

Great Book

Great book for court house drama lovers some parts dragged a little but forgivable. This is my first time reading this author and I am looking forward to reading more of his work

well done but more violent by far than most JG

superb narrator
compelling plot
Child rape and racism made it a little too crunchy for my taste.

Fantastic!!!

Amazing read! Couldn’t put it down!!! Thought provoking! Gripping! Real! Every word tells! Can’t wait to read Grishams other books!

Awesome book!

The story was interesting and informative, and the reader’s performance was perfect. Thank you John Grisham!

Spectacular story; Phenomenal reader

This was a well-paced drama set in Mississippi focusing on a murder trial. It included suspense, drama, pathos and humor. The ending brought tears
