The good of John Grisham was born with a judicial thriller under the arm, no doubt. In the imaginary of the possible events that can happen in a courtroom, from the most remote town court to the most honorable court, John has already imagined everything previously.
This is the only way to consider that facility to construct plots from the intricacies of justice; about the sophisms of the most reputable lawyers, and among the causes of the most vicious white-collar criminals.
This time we go into the old feeling of the unjust and its impossible redress by any official justice. We know of the case of an innocent man who was convicted of murder twenty-two years ago. Your lawyer will not stop until you are free. But those who locked him up have already killed once. And they are prepared to do it again.
In the small town of Seabrook, Florida, a promising attorney named Keith Russo was shot and killed one night while working late in his office. The culprit left no clues. There were no witnesses, no one had a motive. But the police soon became suspicious of Quincy Miller, a young black man who had been a client of Russo.
Miller was tried and sentenced to life in prison. For twenty-two years he languished in prison, maintaining his innocence without anyone listening. Desperate, he writes a letter to the Guardians' Ministry, a small nonprofit organization led by Episcopalian lawyer and priest Cullen Post.
Post travels the country fighting unfair sentences and defending clients forgotten by the system. However, in the case of Quincy Miller he encounters unexpected obstacles. Keith Russo's killers are powerful and ruthless people, and they don't want Miller exonerated. They killed a lawyer twenty-two years ago, and they would kill another without a second thought.
