Author: John Grisham

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 320


Master thriller writer and worldwide No.1 bestseller John Grisham takes you into the heart of America s Deep South with a collection of stories connected by the life and crimes of Ford County- a place of harsh beauty where broken dreams and final wishes converge. A mercy mission that is hilariously sidetracked by human weakness; a manipulative death row inmate with one last plea; a small town divorce attorney who suddenly hits pay dirt; a man that sets out to break a casino to revenge a broken heart; a kidnapped lawyer who is confronted with one of his previous cases at gun point; a conman who preys on the rich and elderly; the boy dying of AIDS who finds mercy across the tracks in downturn Clanton- the sum total of human life is brilliantly captured in Grisham s unique evocation of lives lived and lost in Mississippi. Frequently moving, often hilarious, and always entertaining, Ford County brims with the same page-turning quality and irresistible narrative of his previous bestsellers, and is proof once more why John Grisham is our most popular storyteller.
