Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,149
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. Jake Brigance is back, but he’s not in the courtroom. In “Strawberry Moon,” we meet Cody Wallace, a young death row inmate only three hours away from execution. The “Sparring Partners” are the Malloy brothers, Kirk and Rusty, two young lawyers who inherited a once prosperous firm when its founder, their father, was sent to prison.

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 22 years, he languished in prison, maintaining his innocence. But no one was listening. He had no lawyer, no advocate on the outside.

Given the importance of what they do, and the controversies that often surround them, and the violent people they sometimes confront, it is remarkable that in the history of this country only four active federal judges have been murdered. Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five.... Nothing is as it seems and everything’s fair game in this wickedly clever new novel from John Grisham, the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

Mark, Todd, and Zola came to law school to change the world, to make it a better place. But now, as third-year students, these close friends realize they have been duped. They all borrowed heavily to attend a third-tier, for-profit law school so mediocre that its graduates rarely pass the bar exam, let alone get good jobs. And when they learn that their school is one of a chain owned by a shady New York hedge-fund operator who also happens to own a bank specializing in student loans, the three know they have been caught up in The Great Law School Scam.

Then, on a winter night in 1982, not far from Ron’s home, a young cocktail waitress named Debra Sue Carter was savagely murdered. The investigation led nowhere.

On the right side of the law. Sort of. Sebastian Rudd is not your typical street lawyer. He works out of a customized bulletproof van, complete with Wi-Fi, a bar, a small fridge, fine leather chairs, a hidden gun compartment, and a heavily armed driver. He has no firm, no partners, no associates, and only one employee: his driver, who's also his bodyguard, law clerk, confidant, and golf caddy.

The incomparable master of the legal thriller takes us deeper into the labyrinth that is the American justice system, always drawing us in with an irresistible hook, pulling the thread of tension tighter and tighter, and then knocking us out with a conclusion that's never "by the book". Maybe that's why, after more than 20 years of consecutive number-one New York Times best sellers, a new novel by America's favorite storyteller is still a major publishing event.

An innocent man is about to be executed. Only a guilty man can save him. Travis Boyette is such a man. In 1998, in the small East Texas city of Sloan, he abducted, raped, and strangled a popular high-school cheerleader.

Rick Dockery spielte Football in der National Football League in Amerika, bis er einen sehr schlechten Tag hatte, vielleicht die schlechteste Leistung in der Sportgeschichte. Mit 29 Jahren ist er jedoch zu jung, um seinen Traum vom Profi-Football aufzugeben. Er lässt den ganzen Spott in Cleveland hinter sich und wird Quarterback bei den Parma (Italien) Panthers, wo nur die Amerikaner ein wenig bezahlt werden. Die Panthers setzen ihre ganze Hoffnung auf Rick, damit er ihnen hilft, den italienischen Super Bowl zu gewinnen, obwohl Rick viel lieber woanders spielen würde. In Parma gibt es nicht einmal Cheerleader! Gegen seinen Willen lernt Rick ein wenig über Italien und eine Menge über sich selbst. Ein Abenteuer, das man sich nicht entgehen lassen sollte und das sich deutlich von den Erfahrungen der meisten Italienreisenden unterscheidet. Der Eintritt für das Spiel in Parma ist kostenlos und es macht so viel Spaß, ihm zuzusehen. Willkommen beim American Football in Parma. Sie werden es lieben!
