In 1970, twenty-three-year-old Willie Traynor buys a struggling newspaper in Clanton, Mississippi, and finds himself reporting a brutal murder that transforms the paper's fortunes. His coverage places him at the centre of a controversial trial and introduces him to a community whose friendships and divisions will shape the next decade of his life. The convicted killer has promised revenge against the jurors, but years pass before that threat appears to become real. When members of the jury begin to die, Willie must revisit the case that first established him. John Grisham combines suspense with a portrait of small-town life, following a young newspaperman as ambition gives way to belonging and an unresolved crime demands attention.
