Ilustration Conducive To Books The Runaway Jury

Every jury has a leader, and the verdict belongs to him. In Biloxi, Mississippi, a landmark tobacco trial with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake begins routinely, then swerves mysteriously off course. The jury is behaving strangely, and at least one juror is convinced he's being watched. Soon they have to be sequestered. Then a tip from an anonymous young woman suggests she is able to predict the jurors' increasingly odd behavior. Is the jury somehow being manipulated, or even controlled? If so, by whom? And, more importantly, why? From the Trade Paperback edition.

02/03/2020 update - I just watched the film and I've got to say, it was rubbish in comparison! If you've seen the film, don't be put off reading what is indeed an excellent legal thriller. Wow what a book! It's my first John Grisham after many years of procrastinating, but dang is it a corker. It was one of those stories that when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about the fact that I wanted to be. If you're after a book that grabs you, this is a good one. I've never been that interested in



Saw the movie before reading the book and glad it closely followed the story written by Grisham. They did one minor change, or a major one depending on one's perspective. In the book the lawsuit was aimed at the tobacco industry. The movie targets the gun industry, both powerful industries.When a family decides to take on the tobacco industry and hold them accountable for the death of a family member who got hooked on their product, the tobacco industry pulls no punches, employing a legal expert

Very entertaining. Very worthwhile. I wish more romance authors would write like him, but add romance.REVIEWERS OPINION:For another book someone wrote literary slugger John Grisham returns with a story about... I thought how true. He is a literary slugger almost always on the New York Times best seller list. I periodically read John Grisham to remind me of great writing. I have loved several John Grishams books, and this is another one. A number of things had me chuckling with surprise. The

Another excellent work by a world revered writer. The kernel of the theme here is seemingly encapsulated when the odious Fitch ponders: "Oh the questions he wanted to ask. He d love to start with the two of them and ask whose idea it was, such an ingenious devious plan to study litigation, then follow it across the country then plant oneself on the jury so a deal could be cut for a verdict. It was nothing short of brilliant. He could grill her for hours, maybe days about the specifics but he

My 5th Grisham book! The plot held my interest from beginning to end, and was very fast paced. I had seen the movie a while back starring John Cusack, Dustin Hoffman, Gene Hackman, and Rachel Weisz, and the book had kind of the same premise but only the book is about a lawsuit of a Tobacco company, and in the movie it's a gun manufacturer.Some parts of the book were complicated and hard to follow but it still held my interest wondering what would happen next. Highly recommended to anybody who
