John Grisham is the author of forty-seven consecutive #1
bestsellers, which have been translated into nearly fifty
languages. His recent books include The Judge's List, Sooley, and
his third Jake Brigance novel, A Time for Mercy, which is being
developed by HBO as a limited series.
Grisham is a two-time winner of the Harper Lee Prize for Legal
Fiction and was honored with the Library of Congress Creative
Achievement Award for Fiction.
When he's not writing, Grisham serves on the board of directors of
the Innocence Project and of Centurion Ministries, two national
organizations dedicated to exonerating those who have been
wrongfully convicted. Much of his fiction explores deep-seated
problems in our criminal justice system.
John lives on a farm in central Virginia.
"Terrific…Grisham, can still devise distinctive characters,
tricky legal predicaments and rogueishly cheating ways to worm out
of them."
--Maureen Corrigan, The Washington Post
"Sebastian Rudd is a kind of social justice warrior and Grisham
uses him to take jabs at the legal system…all with a blunt, rude,
gravelly poetic wise guy voice that makes Rudd come across as a
kind of 21st-century Philip Marlowe."
--Benjamin Percy, The New York Times Book Review
