Summary
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • John Grisham returns to the iconic setting of his first novel, A Time to Kill, as Jake Brigance finds himself embroiled in a controversial trial that exposes a tortured history of racial tension.

“Welcome back, Jake. . . . [Brigance] is one of the most fully developed and engaging characters in all of Grisham’s novels.”—USA Today

Seth Hubbard is a wealthy white man dying of lung cancer. He trusts no one. Before he hangs himself from a sycamore tree, Hubbard leaves a new, handwritten will. It is an act that drags his adult children, his black maid, and defense attorney Jake Brigance into a conflict as riveting and dramatic as the murder trial that made Brigance one of Ford County’s most notorious citizens, just three years earlier.

The second will raises many more questions than it answers. Why would Hubbard leave nearly all of his fortune to his maid? Had chemotherapy and painkillers affected his ability to think clearly? And what does it all have to do with a piece of land once known as Sycamore Row?

Another incredible book by John Grisham. Enjoyed it thoroughly. The narrator was outstanding, simply incredible making the whole story/novel so much more interesting I could not wait to continue listening to it each and every day. I can't wait to continue selecting and listening to more books by this author.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Mar 2023

Great story! Grisham keeps us on the edge until the end.

Profile Avatar Tim S. Jan 2023

Been a fan of Grisham for many years... amazing story teller. And the Narrator is just as great... the way he changes his voice for each character adds another dimension that takes it up several notches makes for a great, great read.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Dec 2022

Narrator is amazing…lots of different voices for many different characters. I’ll listen to anything he narrates. Book is good, lots of character development and told in an engaging way.

Another great Grisham story. The history of the south in the mid 1900’s is a stain on America and he tells it in such detail and craft. Excellent listen.

Profile Avatar NATALEE Kinstler Nov 2014

Terribly written book. Written at a 4th grade level. If your used to reading good literature, then you will be very disappointed in this book. The narration is very monotone. I cannot believe this book has received such good reviews.

Fantastic narration. Super slow book. Not much going on until last 25%

Another Grisham home run. A very intriguing story that leaves you wanting to know what comes next. Beck's narrative is excellent. He is comfortable to listen to and his use of varying characters makes the story come to life.

Loved this one. Jake Brigance is such a well-drawn character. In my Top 5 of Grisham books.

Profile Avatar Betsy Blackstock Mar 2014

I enjoyed this book very much. the narrator did an extremely good job with all the voices.

Profile Avatar James Kattoor Mar 2014

John Grisham can make the mundane sound exciting. Add to that the fact that the plot is really intriguing and gripping, and you have the makings of an awesome read. And Michael Beck's narration brings it all to life in all it's magnificence. A great read, especially if you like legal thrillers and remember Jake Brigance from "A Time to Kill". Highly recommended.

Profile Avatar Judith Bellefleur Jan 2014

Another great book by John Grisham with an enjoyable narration as well. Waiting patiently for their next. I am never disappointed.
