À propos de cet ebook
John Grisham's first and most shocking legal thriller, adapted as a film starring Samuel L. Jackson and Matthew McConaughey.
______________________________
THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLER FROM THE MASTER OF LEGAL THRILLERS
When Carl Lee Hailey guns down the violent racists who raped his ten-year-old daughter, the people of the small town of Clanton, Mississippi see it as justice done, and call for his acquittal.
But when extremists outside Clanton - including the KKK - hear that a black man has killed two white men, they invade the town, determined to destroy anything and anyone that opposes their sense of justice. A media circus descends on Clanton.
As tensions mount, Hailey hires the inexperienced Jake Brigance to defend him. It is the kind of case that could make a young lawyer's career.
But it is also the kind of case that could get a young lawyer killed. . .
