I like to listen to stories. I have read a few Grisham novels. He does a good legal job when he writes his books. The narrator, Scott Sowers, sure does a great job making this book come alive. His voices are so varied and really make an image pop into your head about each character.

I wish I could say I was a big enough Grisham reader/fan to fully understand if all his books could be like this. It seems that in this book Grisham had a soap box message about the death penalty and corruption in Texas. There also seemed to be some true and positive modern Christian messages sprinkled through out the book, and I dont recall Grisham being a very religious writer, but maybe he is.

In this story, one of the main characters is a pastor, and I think this might explain the statements about WWJD, Would Jesus kill a man because of his crimes?

I over all was glad I listened to this book, and the questions I have about the author make me want to search for other books I hadnt read.

I just want to admit, I expected this whole thing to turn out the Runaway Jury, where it was all a set up. I like Runaway Jury.
