He was accused of killing Keith Russo, a lawyer in a small Florida town. But there were no reliable witnesses and little motive. Just the fact that Russo had botched Quincy's divorce case, that Quincy was black in a largely all-white town and that a blood-splattered torch was found in the boot of Quincy's car. A torch he swore was planted. A torch that was conveniently destroyed in a fire just before his trial.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lack of evidence made no difference to judge or jury. In the eyes of the law Quincy was guilty and, no matter how often he protested his innocence, his punishment was life in prison.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFinally, after 22 years, comes Quincy's one and only chance of freedom. An innocence lawyer and minister, Cullen Post, takes on his case. Post has exonerated eight men in the last ten years. He intends to make Quincy the next.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut there were powerful and ruthless people behind Russo's murder. They prefer that an innocent man dies in jail rather than one of them. There's one way to guarantee that. They killed one lawyer 22 years ago, and they'll kill another without a second thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for John Grisham's THE GUARDIANS:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e'A canny and engrossing\u003c\/b\u003e blend of two types of Grisham novel: enough of the familiar formula of a single lawsuit in a single town, mixed with a \u003cb\u003emore picaresque and multistranded\u003c\/b\u003e approach that has the significant advantage of taking in a wider swathe of America' - \u003ci\u003eThe Sunday Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Delivered with all \u003cb\u003ehis signature easy, flowing style\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cb\u003eA past master at the art\u003c\/b\u003e of deft characterisation and the \u003cb\u003eskilful delivery\u003c\/b\u003e of hair-raising crescendos, Grisham makes this a deceptively easy read' - \u003ci\u003eIrish Independent\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'This is typical Grisham: \u003cb\u003espeedy, gripping,\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003every good at conveying the complexities of the law\u003c\/b\u003e in a digestible way' - \u003ci\u003eSunday Express\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e'Speedy\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003egripping'\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003ci\u003eDaily Mirror\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e350+ million\u003c\/b\u003e copies, \u003cb\u003e45\u003c\/b\u003e languages, \u003cb\u003e9\u003c\/b\u003e blockbuster films:\u003cbr\u003eNO ONE WRITES DRAMA LIKE JOHN GRISHAM\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grisham, John","offers":[{"title":"Good","offer_id":46963798180179,"sku":"XG81473684430","price":4.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":48682089480531,"sku":"XV81473684430","price":6.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"New","offer_id":44588381077794,"sku":"9781473684430","price":8.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/grisham-john-john-grisham-the-guardians-2019-hardback-56123792752979.jpg?v=1716380408","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.pro\/products\/the-guardians-the-sunday-times-bestseller","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
