John Grisham as a child dreamed of being a professional baseball player. After graduating from law school at Ole Miss in 1981, he went on to practice law for nearly a decade, specialising in criminal defense and personal injury litigation. One day, Grisham overheard the harrowing testimony of a twelve-year-old rape victim and was inspired to start a novel exploring what would have happened if the girl's father had murdered her assailants. Getting up at 5 a.m. every day to get in several hours of writing time before heading off to work, Grisham spent three years on A Time to Kill and finished it in 1987.
His next novel, The Firm, spent 47 weeks on The New York Times bestseller list and became the bestselling novel of 1991. Since then, he has written one novel a year, including The Client, The Pelican Brief, The Rainmaker and The Runaway Jury.
Today, Grisham has written a collection of stories, a work of non-fiction, three sports novels, five kids' books, and many legal thrillers. His work has been translated into 42 languages. He lives near Charlottesville, Virginia.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En la esperada secuela de la novela que lanzó su fenomenal carrera, John Grisham nos trae la poderosa continuación de A Time to Kill. Llena de giros y vueltas que te mantendrán pegado a sus páginas, Sycamore Row demuestra sin lugar a dudas que John Grisham está en una liga propia. Jake Brigance nunca ha conocido a Seth Hubbard, ni siquiera ha oído hablar de él, hasta que la nota de suicidio del anciano lo nombra abogado de su patrimonio. El testamento es dinamita. Seth ha dejado el noventa por ciento de su vasta fortuna secreta a su empleada doméstica. Los buitres están rondando incluso antes de que el cuerpo esté frío: el único tema más incendiario que el dinero en el condado de Ford es la raza, y este caso tiene ambos. Mientras los familiares impugnan el testamento y los abogados sin escrúpulos se apresuran a beneficiarse, Jake busca respuestas a las muchas preguntas que dejó la muerte de Seth Hubbard: ¿Qué le hizo escribir ese testamento de última hora dejando todo a una pobre mujer negra llamada Lettie Lang? ¿Por qué eligió suicidarse en el desolado terreno conocido como Sycamore Row? ¿Y qué fue lo que Seth y su hermano presenciaron de niños que, en sus palabras, 'ningún humano debería ver'?

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In the long-awaited successor to the novel that launched his phenomenal career, John Grisham brings us the powerful sequel to A Time to Kill. As filled with page-turning twists as it is with legal mastery, Sycamore Row proves beyond doubt that John Grisham is in a league of his own. Jake Brigance has never met Seth Hubbard, or even heard of him, until the old man's suicide note names him attorney for his estate. The will is dynamite. Seth has left ninety per cent of his vast, secret fortune to his housemaid. The vultures are circling even before the body is cold: the only subject more incendiary than money in Ford County is race, and this case has both. AS the relatives contest the will, and unscrupulous lawyers hasten to benefit, Jake searches for answers to the many questions left by Seth Hubbard's death: What made him write that last-minute will leaving everything to a poor black woman named Lettie Lang? Why did he choose to kill himself on the desolate piece of land known as Sycamore Row? And what was it that Seth and his brother witnessed as children that, in his words, 'no human should ever see'? The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR005248422
