This gripping tale of revenge and justice was written by John Grisham before The Firm and The Pelican Brief catapulted him to fame. Best-selling novelist John Grisham explores the brutal depths of racial violence in this gripping courtroom drama while telling a gripping story of ambiguous justice in the little southern hamlet of Clanton, Mississippi.
Two inebriated and heartless young men ruin the life of a ten-year-old child. The mostly white community is shocked and horrified by the inhumane crime. That is, until her father, who is black, gets hold of an assault weapon and decides to take things into his own hands.
Ten days pass as the country watches in awe as young defense lawyer Jake Brigance fights to save both his client's and his own life as cracks from sniper fire and burning crosses spread through the streets of Clanton.
