Pete Banning was Clanton's favourite son, a returning war hero, the patriarch of a prominent family, a farmer, father, neighbour, and a faithful member of the Methodist Church. Then one cool October morning in 1946. he rose early, drove into town, walked into the church, and calmly shot and killed the Reverend Dexter Bell. As if the murder wasn't shocking enough, it was even more baffling that Pete's only statement about it - to the sheriff, to his defense attorney, to the judge, to his family and friends, and to the people of Clanton - was 'I have nothing to say'. And so the murder of the esteemed Reverend Bell became the most mysterious and unforgettable crime Ford County had ever known. Praise for Grisham's latest book, The Rooster Bar (knihydobrovsky.cz)

We expect our judges to be honest and wise. Their integrity and impartiality are the bedrock of the entire judicial system. We trust them to ensure fair trials, to protect the rights of all litigants, to punish those who do wrong, and to oversee the orderly and efficient flow of justice. But what happens when a judge bends the law or takes a bribe? It's rare, but it happens. Lacy Stoltz is an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct. She is a lawyer, not a cop, and it is her job to respond to complaints dealing with judicial misconduct. After nine years with the Board, she knows that most problems are caused by incompetence, not corruption. But a corruption case eventually crosses her desk. A previously disbarred lawyer is back in business with a new identity. He now goes by the name Greg Myers, and he claims to know of a Florida judge who has stolen more money than all other crooked judges combined. And not just crooked judges in Florida. All judges, from all states, and throughout U.S. history. What's the source of the ill-gotten gains? It seems the judge was secretly involved with the construction of a large casino on Native American land. The Coast Mafia financed the casino and is now helping itself to a sizable skim of each month's cash. The judge is getting a cut and looking the other way. It's a sweet deal: Everyone is making money. But now Greg wants to put a stop to it. His only client is a person who knows the truth and wants to blow the whistle and collect millions under Florida law. Greg files a complaint with the Board on Judicial Conduct, and the case is assigned to Lacy Stoltz, who immediately suspects that this one could be dangerous. Dangerous is one thing. Deadly is something else. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

He was accused of killing Keith Russo, a lawyer in a small Florida town. But there were no reliable witnesses and little motive. Just the fact that Russo had botched Quincy's divorce case, that Quincy was black in a largely all-white town and that a blood-splattered torch was found in the boot of Quincy's car. A torch he swore was planted. A torch that was conveniently destroyed in a fire just before his trial. The lack of evidence made no difference to judge or jury. In the eyes of the law Quincy was guilty and, no matter how often he protested his innocence, his punishment was life in prison. Finally, after 22 years, comes Quincy's one and only chance of freedom. An innocence lawyer and minister, Cullen Post, takes on his case. Post has exonerated eight men in the last ten years. He intends to make Quincy the next. But there were powerful and ruthless people behind Russo's murder. They prefer that an innocent man dies in jail rather than one of them. There's one way to guarantee that. They killed one lawyer 22 years ago, and they'll kill another without a second thought. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Podobné produkty ako Sooley - John GrishamV malom floridskom meste Seabrook zastrelili mladého právnika Keitha Russa, keď večer pracoval pri svojom stole. Vrah nezanechal stopy. Nebolo svedkov ani motívu. Polícia však čoskoro začala podozrievať mladého černocha Quincyho Millera, bývalého klienta Keitha Russa. Quincyho postavili pred súd a odsúdili na doživotie. Dvadsaťdva rokov bol vo väzení a trval na svojej nevine. Nikto ho však nepočúval. Nemal právnika, nikoho, kto by mu pomohol. Zo zúfalstva po rokoch napíše list malej neziskovej organizácii Guardian Ministries, ktorú vedie Cullen Post, právnik a súčasne episkopálny kňaz. Guardian Ministries sa venuje iba špecifickým prípadom nespravodlivo odsúdených väzňov. Cullen Post cestuje po celej Amerike, bojuje za obete justičných omylov a stará sa o klientov, na ktorých systém zabudol. Prípad Quincyho Millera je trochu odlišný. Keitha Russa zavraždili mocní bezohľadní ľudia a tí nechcú, aby sa Quincy dostal na slobodu. Pred dvadsiatimi dvoma rokmi zabili jedného právnika a bez váhania by sa zbavili aj ďalšieho. John Grisham vo svojom novom románe, ktorý sa okamžite umiestnil na prvom mieste v rebríčku bestsellerov New York Times, prináša čitateľom klasický právnický triler – a ešte čosi navyše.

Právě tak dlouho bojuje jeho právník o zvrácení rozsudku.
