Beginning with The Firm in 1991, John Grisham has published at
least one #1 bestseller every year. His books have been translated
into 45 languages and have sold over 350 million copies worldwide.
Ten have been adapted to film, including The Firm, The Pelican
Brief, and A Time To Kill. His Theodore Boone series for young
readers is now in development at Netflix. An avid sports fan, he
has written two novels about football, one about baseball, and in
2021 he published Sooley, a story set in the world of college
basketball. His lone work of non-fiction, The Innocent Man, was
adapted into a six-part Netflix docuseries.
He is the two-time winner of the Harper Lee Prize For Legal Fiction
and was distinguished with the Library of Congress Creative
Achievement Award For Fiction.
When he's not writing, he serves on the Board of Directors of the
Innocence Project and Centurion Ministries, two national
organizations dedicated to exonerating those who have been
wrongfully convicted. Much of his recent fiction explores
deep-seated problems in our criminal justice systems.
A graduate of Mississippi State University and Ole Miss Law School,
he lives on a farm in central Virginia, around the corner from the
youth baseball complex he built in 1996. He still serves as its
Commissioner.
A bewitching blend of high-stakes spying mission and summer
romance, with a fascinatingly ambiguous central character
*The Sunday Times*
The gripping plot will have you devouring the chapters in such a
frantic fashion you'll begin to wonder if you are somehow complicit
in this perfect crime
*Heat*
This story take you into the dark underworld of the black market
for rare books. Think Da Vinci Code meets Sherlock Holmes
*Sun*
Grisham shows charm, wit and a light touch.
*The Times*
It's not often that bookish readers are a thriller's target
audience so this one is very welcome.
*Literary Review*
Every now and then Grisham tries something new. This year he hit a
bull's-eye with a beach book featuring a bunch of writers, not a
bunch of lawyers. There's a huge sense of fun to this little
experiment
*Janet Maslin, Independent*
In both of these irresistible reads Grisham introduces readers to
memorable characters whom he capably brings to life
*Forbes Global*
