In suburban Georgetown, a killer's Reeboks whisper on the floor of a posh home. In a seedy D.C. porno house, a patron is swiftly garrotted to death. The next day America learns that two of its Supreme Court justices have been assassinated. And in New Orleans, a young law student prepares a legal brief. To Darby Shaw it was no more than a legal shot in the dark, a brilliant guess. To the Washington establishment it's political dynamite. Suddenly Darby is witness to a murder-a murder intended for her. Going underground, she finds that there is only one person-an ambitious reporter after a newsbreak hotter than Watergate-she can trust to help her piece together the deadly puzzle. Somewhere between the bayous of Louisiana and the White House's inner sanctums, a violent cover-up is being engineered. For someone has read Darby's brief-someone who will stop at nothing to destroy the evidence of an unthinkable crime. Gripping...a genuine page-turner. Grisham is a skilful craftsman. - The New York Times

Małe miasteczko i wielka prawnicza batalia, którą żyje cały stan Missisipi. Jake Brigance, młody prawnik z Czasu zabijania, powraca o kilka lat starszy, ale wciąż gotowy bronić swoich klientów do ostatniego tchu. Wydawać by się mogło, że wystąpienie w głośnym procesie w roli obrońcy czarnoskórego ojca oskarżonego o zabicie białych mężczyzn, którzy zgwałcili jego córkę, otworzy Jake’owi Brigance’owi drogę do sławy i pieniędzy. Tymczasem trzy lata później nadal jest małomiasteczkowym adwokatem borykającym się z problemami. Szansa na zmianę tej sytuacji pojawia się, gdy nieuleczalnie chory Seth Hubbart popełnia samobójstwo i pozostawia po sobie kontrowersyjny testament, którego sądowe zatwierdzenie powierza Jake’owi. Nie będzie łatwo udowodnić – przed ławą przysięgłych, w której zasiadają głównie biali – że zmarły, zapisując niemal cały swój majątek czarnoskórej gosposi, był w pełni władz umysłowych. Zwłaszcza że przeciwnikami Jake’a Brigance’a będą prawnicy z najlepszych kancelarii w Memphis i Jackson, z których każdy będzie próbował uszczknąć dla siebie kawałek ze smakowitego tortu. Clanton ponownie podzieli się na białych i czarnych. A nad okolicą zawiśnie złowrogi cień Ku-Klux-Klanu.

Bevor sie die Falle zuschnappen ließen, hatten sie Danilo Silva seit Tagen rund um die Uhr überwacht. Er führte ein ruhiges Leben in einem heruntergekommenden Viertel einer kleinen Stadt in Brasilien, und nichts deutete darauf hin, dass er neunzig Millionen Dollar beiseite geschafft hatte. Er war jetzt viel dünner als früher, und ein Chirurg hatte ihm ein neues Gesicht verpaßt. Denn Danilo Silva hat eine Vergangenheit mit vielen Kapiteln.

За всю историю США были убиты только четверо федеральных судьи. Недавно в этот список внесли и пятого – Раймонда Фосетта. Тело судьи и труп его секретарши обнаружили в домике у озера, причем следы взлома и борьбы отсутствовали. А еще в хижине обнаружили настежь распахнутый, пустой сейф… Кто убил Фосетта и почему? И что хранилось в сейфе? Ответы на эти вопросы, похоже, знает лишь один человек – заключенный лагеря в штате Мэриленд Малкольм Баннистер, бывший адвокат, осужденный за то, чего не совершал. Баннистер готов помочь агентам ФБР, предоставив им информацию. Но за помощь он требует слишком много. И к тому же не понятно, можно ли вообще ему доверять…
