Opis

Theodore Boone never expected to be the victim of crime. But then his bike is vandalised, he's attacked while doing his homework and, worst of all, framed for a robbery. In a race against time he must find the real felon and reveal the true motivation behind the crimes of which he stands accused.

Recenzje

Grisham is wise and pragmatic about the world: poor parenting, prescription drug misuse and the violent lives of drifters all feature in this fast-paced tale. Financial Times on THEODORE BOONE: THE ABDUCTION
