Product Description

Product Description
Every Jury has a leader, and the verdict belongs to him. In Biloxi, Mississippi, a landmark trial with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake begins routinely, then swerves mysteriously off course. The jury is behaving strangely, and a least one juror is convinced he's being watched. Soon, they have to be sequestered. Then, a tip from an anonymous young woman suggests she is able to predict the juror's increasingly odd behaviour. Is the jury somehow being manipulated, or even controlled? If so, by whom? And, more importantly, why?

From the Publisher
John Grisham's bestselling backlist repackaged with fantastic new covers

4.0 out of 5 stars Giant tab companies dodgy dealings., 6 April 2001
By A Customer
I have read 6 of John Grishams novels now and this was a real page turner from the outset. The story centres around a massive court case involving the largest tobacco companies in the world and the lengths they well go to, to secure a verdict in their favour. At times the plot gets weighed down with court precedure but don't let this put you off. The book keeps you gripped right up to the last 50 pages or so when you can pretty much guess the ending. Other than that, a right riveting read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read !, 17 April 2000
I really enjoyed this book. It was the usual top quality that you can expect from Grisham. The plot was completely original and to this day it is one of my favourite books. I would definately recommened this book to anyone who likes a fast moving, adventurous and gripping book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Smoke them out!, 5 Aug 2007
Just a rip roaring good read. Makes me glad I never touched a ciggy in my life. Grisham's skill in taking an otherwise dull trial where experts espouse detailed and barely understandable terminology and turning it into something fast paced and exciting is truly remarkable.

I have to admit that of late I have been rather dissapointed by Grisham's work, particularly his novel the Summons for its incessent repetition of points already communicated ad infinitum, but this novel is certainly among his best.
