A Time to Kill (20th Anniversary Edition)

by John Grisham

A Time to Kill (20th Anniversary Edition) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Before The Firm and The Pelican Brief made him a superstar, John Grisham wrote this riveting story of retribution and justice — now available in a premium 20th anniversary edition!

The life of a ten-year-old girl is shattered by two drunken and remorseless young men. The mostly white town of Clanton in Ford County, Mississippi, reacts with shock and horror at the inhuman crime. Until her black father acquires an assault rifle and takes justice into his own outraged hands.

For ten days, as burning crosses and the crack of sniper fire spread through the streets of Clanton, the nation sits spellbound as young defense attorney Jake Brigance struggles to save his client's life — and then his own.

Review:

"Grisham's pleasure in relating the Byzantine complexities of Clanton (Mississippi) politics is contagious and he tells a good story....An enjoyable book." Library Journal

Review:

"Grisham excels!" Dallas Times Herald

Review:

"Grisham is an absolute master." The Washington Post

Synopsis:

Grisham's gripping classic is being reissued on its 20th anniversary for the first time in a tall Premium Edition, featuring new materials from the #1 "New York Times"-bestselling author. Reissue.
