Über diesen Titel

 #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • John Grisham returns to Florida, where The Whistler’s Lacy Stoltz takes on a cold case that reveals a judge’s darkest secrets.

“One of the best crime reads of the year . . . a world-class shocker, worth staying up all night to finish.”—The Wall Street Journal

In The Whistler, Lacy Stoltz investigated a corrupt judge who was taking millions in bribes from a crime syndicate. She put the criminals away, but only after being attacked and nearly killed. Three years later, and approaching forty, she is tired of her work for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct and ready for a change.

Then she meets a mysterious woman who is so frightened she uses a number of aliases. Jeri Crosby’s father was murdered twenty years earlier in a case that remains unsolved and that has grown stone cold. But Jeri has a suspect whom she has become obsessed with and has stalked for two decades. Along the way, she has discovered other victims.

The man Jeri holds responsible for all these deaths is brilliant, patient, and always one step ahead of law enforcement. He is the most cunning of all serial killers. He knows forensics, police procedure, and most important: he knows the law.

He is a judge, in Florida—under Lacy’s jurisdiction.

But the man keeps a record of all his victims and targets, people unlucky enough to have crossed his path and wronged him in some way. Lacy must work to take him down, while somehow keeping her name off his list. Justiz Thriller

Kritikerstimmen

Praise for the novels of John Grisham

“John Grisham is about as good a storyteller as we’ve got in the United States these days.”—The New York Times Book Review

“In all of Grisham’s best books . . . the reader gets good company, a vigorous runaround and . . . a bit of a legal education.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

“Grisham’s books are smart, imaginative, and funny, populated by complex, interesting people.”—The Washington Post

“The law, by its nature, creates drama, and a new Grisham promises us an inside look at the dirty machineries of process and power, with plenty of entertainment.”—Los Angeles Times

“John Grisham owns the legal thriller.” —The Denver Post

The victims daughter found her fathers killer while hiding for 20 years from the monster… until she doesn’t before its safe?
The culprit kills and kills for silly reasons until safety would require it and he doesn’t?
The monster knows to do the most outrageous hacking gigs, does the weirdest life preserving maneuvers for himself until he doesn’t?
Its a very long way uphill with lots of stories from the past until it goes downhill steep, fast and off the rocky side.

It’s a great idea for a book but not a Grisham at all. Sorry

Grishams worst, ok but thats it

Von allen Grishams, war das der bisher enttäuschendste. Spannung wird kaum aufgebaut, riesige Logikfehler ziehen sich durch die Story, zB dass panisch nach Fingerabdrücken gesucht wird, die ja auf jedem archivierten oder verschickten Dokument wären, aber auch, dass dna dabei völlig außer acht gelassen wird. Dass ein Richter zugleich ein Megahacker sein soll, dessen Trojaner sogar das FBI wie nebenbei infiltrieren, ist auch ziemlich daneben. Grisham war schon viel besser.

Enttäuschendster Grisham bisher
