Number 1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham takes us back to Ford County, Mississippi, the setting of his first novel, A Time to Kill. This riveting collection of short stories features an unforgettable cast of characters: Wheelchair-bound Inex Graney and her older sons embark on a bizarre road trip through the Mississippi Delta to visit Inez's youngest son, Raymond, who is on death row. A hard-drinking, low-grossing divorce lawyer fed up with his wife , his life, and the law plans a drastic escape after an unexpected phone call. A quiet, unassuming data collector sets out to bring down a flashy casino owner with his skill at blackjack as payback for the theft of his wife. A stalker hunts victims in a retirement home, a lawyer confronts a vengeful adversary from the past, and a young man from a prominent family is driven off by scandal and fear but finds unexpected redemption on the wrong side of the tracks. Often hilarious, frequently moving, and always entertaining, this collection makes it abundantly clear why John Grisham is our most popular storyteller.
I never enjoy reading crimes, investigations or criminal types of fiction books. This one is definitely my first and it's not disappointing. Moreover it's in short stories. I likes short stories compares to regular books. What I can said is John Grisham really knows how to lure you to read more and more. Overall, I enjoyed the reading.
