Book description
Worldwide No. 1 bestseller John Grisham takes you into the heart of
America's Deep South with a collection of stories connected by the
life and crimes of Ford County: a place of harsh beauty where broken
dreams and final wishes converge.
From a hard-drinking, downtrodden divorce lawyer looking for
pay-dirt, to a manipulative death row inmate with one last plea, Ford
County features a vivid cast of attorneys, crooks, hustlers,
and convicts. Through their stories he paints a unique picture of
lives lived and lost in Mississippi.
Completely gripping, frequently moving and always entertaining, Ford
County brims with the same page-turning quality and
heart-stopping drama of his previous bestsellers, and is proof once
more why John Grisham is our most popular storyteller.
