"The best living thriller writer." Some crimes make history. Pete Banning was the favorite son of Clanton, Mississippi. A decorated World War II hero, patriarch of a prominent family, farmer, father, neighbor, and steadfast member of the Methodist church. One October morning in 1946, he rose early, drove into town, and there committed an astonishing crime. The only words Pete uttered to the sheriff, his lawyers, the jury, the judge, and his family were: "I have nothing to say." He was not afraid of death and was prepared to take his reasons to the grave. In this novel, John Grisham takes us on an incredible journey from the era of racial segregation in the United States to the jungle of the Philippine islands during World War II, and from a psychiatric hospital full of secrets to the courtroom where Pete's lawyer desperately tries to save him. |
