John Grisham

Recenzje

A murder mystery, a courtroom drama, a family saga . . . The Reckoning is Grisham's argument that he's not just a boilerplate thriller writer. Most jurors will think the counselor has made his case. USA Today
 
The quest for justice is only the beginning in this Southern family saga. . . . [Grisham] does so much more this time around. Akron Beacon Journal

John Grisham is not only the master of suspense but also an acute observer of the human condition. And these remarkable skills converge in The Reckoning an original, gripping, penetrating novel that may be his greatest work yet. David Grann, New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower Moon
 
John Grisham is the master of legal fiction, and his latest starts with a literal bang and then travels backward through the horrors of war to explore what makes a hero, what makes a villain, and how thin the line between the two might be. Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Spark of Light and Small Great Things

In this saga of love and war, John Grisham has given us a sprawling and engrossing story about a southern family, a global conflict, and the kinds of secrets that can shape all of us. From the courtrooms and jails of rural Mississippi to the war-torn Pacific, Grisham spins a tale that is at once entertaining and illuminating. Jon Meacham, New York Times bestselling author of The Soul of America

When a master of storytelling and suspense takes on one of the most wrenching stories in history, the result is a book that will break your heart, set your blood pumping and your mind racing, and leave you gasping for breath by the final page. I m still trying to recover from The Reckoning. Candice Millard, New York Times bestselling author of The River of Doubt and Destiny of the Republic
