Scott Turow: Presumed Guilty, Swift Press, 9781800754515, C format paperback
Scott Turow is a legend when it comes to legal thrillers, been a fan ever since reading " Presumed Innocent". Unlike many thrillers with lots of action, Turow's thing is not a quick thrill, he builts up his plots and characters slowly, the trials in his novels rely on fine detail, as you would expect a lawyer to argue and research his defense cases.
Rusty Sabich, a judge and lawyer who featured in Presumed Innocent, has to present his future stepson in court, charged with a murder indictment. Aaron has been accused of the murder of his girlfriend Mae.
It needs 534 pages until you have your answer, an incredibly smart, atmospheric and brilliant suspence novel which I absolutely recommend.
