Publisher's summary

Theodore Boone is 13 and wants nothing more than to swap homeroom for the courtroom; he lives for big trials. Now the biggest murder case in his city's history is set to begin.

In the packed court, a husband awaits trial for his wife's murder.

Is he a dangerous criminal or an innocent victim?

The case takes a sinister twist when Theo uncovers a surprise witness with his own problems to hide. But Theodore is sworn to secrecy and time is running out.

Can Theo find a way to bring the killer to justice...or will a guilty man get away with murder?

Brimming with the intrigue and suspense that made John Grisham a number one international best-seller and the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

Half the length, twice the enjoyment

If John Grisham wrote this story to reach a wider audience, I think he will succeed. This novel is far less technical than his legal thrillers, and much less tense. Still, the story moves along with pace and humour, and the characters are all believable and interesting.

The narrator does a good job and by the end I was hoping the book would go on longer. Great story, brilliantly told.

A great book to start Audiobooks

Excellent narration. The book comes to life through the hundred thousands voices that the narrator has. This is the perfect "First Audiobook" - Simple, effective and terrific.

You have to be kidding!

This is my second review on a John Grisham book and seriously this is almost kindergarten stuff. Boring, sentimental rubbish. Nothing like pumping out a book that barely rises above mediocre. Dont bother wasting a credit on this one.
