Reviews
The master is back and in The Last Trial Scott Turow takes it to another level . . . A writer with few peersDavid Baldacci, Number One Bestselling Author
The Last Trial is Scott Turow at his best and most ambitious. He has elevated the genre once againWashington Post

Grisham might do it more often, but Turow does it so much betterObserver
