The Pelican Brief Av John Grisham

<p><b>Two Supreme Court Justices are dead, their murders unsolved.</b><br><b>But one woman might have found the answer </b><b>– if she can live to tell it.</b><br><br>Darby Shaw is a brilliant New Orleans legal student with a sharp political mind. For her own amusement, she draws up a legal brief showing how the judges might have been murdered for political reasons, and shows it to her professor. He shows it to his friend, an FBI lawyer.<br><br>Then the professor dies in a car bombing.<br><br>And Darby realises that her brief, which pointed to a vast presidential conspiracy, might be right. Someone is intent on silencing Darby for good - somebody who will stop at nothing to preserve the secrets of the Pelican Brief...<br><b>_______________________________________</b><br><b>‘A master at the art of deft characterisation and the skilful delivery of hair-raising crescendos'' </b>– <i>Irish Independent</i><br><br><b>''John Grisham is the master of legal fiction'' </b>– Jodi Picoult<br><br><b>''The best thriller writer alive'' </b>– Ken Follett<br><br><b>‘</b><b>John Grisham has perfected the art of cooking up convincing, fast-paced thrillers’ </b>– <i>Telegraph</i><br><br><b>‘Grisham is a superb, instinctive storyteller’ </b>–<i> The Times</i><br><br><b>‘Grisham''s storytelling genius reminds us that when it comes to legal drama, the master is in a league of his own.’</b> – <i>Daily Record</i><br><br><b>‘Masterful – when Grisham gets in the courtroom he lets rip, drawing scenes so real they''re not just alive, they''re pulsating’ </b>– <i>Mirror</i><br><br><b>‘A giant of the thriller genre’ </b>– <i>TimeOut</i></p>
