Simon Latch es un modesto abogado de Virginia que gana lo justo para pagar sus facturas mientras contempla cómo su matrimonio se desmorona poco a poco. Hasta el día en que entra en su despacho Eleanor Barnett, una anciana que necesita redactar un nuevo testamento. Según relata, su marido le dejó una pequeña fortuna de la que nadie sabe nada.
Ahora que Simon ha conseguido a la clienta más adinerada de toda su carrera, el abogado debe trabajar con discreción para mantener su riqueza oculta. Pero pronto la historia de la anciana empieza a resquebrajarse. Y cuando es hospitalizada tras un accidente de coche, Simon se da cuenta de que nada es lo que parece. No solo eso. Simon se enfrenta a un juicio por un delito que jura no haber cometido: asesinato.
Él sabe que es inocente. Pero también que las pruebas circunstanciales están en su contra y que podría pasar el resto de su vida entre rejas. Para salvarse, debe encontrar al verdadero asesino...
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
#1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham is the acclaimed master of the legal thriller. Now, he’s back with his first-ever whodunit, even more suspenseful than his courtroom dramas, as a small-time lawyer accused of murder races to find the real killer to clear his name.
Simon Latch is a lawyer in rural Virginia, making just enough to pay his bills while his marriage slowly falls apart. Then into his office walks Eleanor Barnett, an elderly widow in need of a new will. Apparently, her husband left her a small fortune, and no one knows about it.
Once he hooks the richest client of his career, Simon works quietly to keep her wealth under the radar. But soon her story begins to crack. When she is hospitalized after a car accident, Simon realizes that nothing is as it seems, and he finds himself on trial for a crime he swears he didn’t commit: murder.
Simon knows he’s innocent. But he also knows the circumstantial evidence is against him, and he could spend the rest of his life behind bars. To save himself, he must find the real killer….
