The electrifying thriller from internationally bestselling author John Grisham.

A SMALL TOWN. A BIG MURDER.

A man is dead - and nobody knows why.

One morning in 1946, Pete Banning - war hero, pillar of the community and faithful member of Clanton's Methodist Church - drives into town, walks into the church and calmly shoots Reverend Dexter Bell in cold blood.

In the years following the murder, Banning's only statement is: 'I have nothing to say.' The sheriff, his defense attorney, the judge and his family and friends are all left in the dark.

What drove this man to murder has haunted Clanton for decades - and now, a reckoning is coming...

John Grisham

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.
