John Grisham is the author of forty-seven consecutive #1
bestsellers, which have been translated into nearly fifty
languages. His recent books include The Judge's List, Sooley, and
his third Jake Brigance novel, A Time for Mercy, which is being
developed by HBO as a limited series.
Grisham is a two-time winner of the Harper Lee Prize for Legal
Fiction and was honored with the Library of Congress Creative
Achievement Award for Fiction.
When he's not writing, Grisham serves on the board of directors of
the Innocence Project and of Centurion Ministries, two national
organizations dedicated to exonerating those who have been
wrongfully convicted. Much of his fiction explores deep-seated
problems in our criminal justice system.
John lives on a farm in central Virginia.
“The quest for justice is only the beginning in this
Southern-family saga…Grisham does so much more this time
around.”
—Associated Press
“John Grisham is not only the master of suspense but also an acute
observer of the human condition. And these remarkable skills
converge in The Reckoning—an original, gripping, penetrating
novel that may be his greatest work yet.”
—David Grann, New York Times bestselling author
of Killers of the Flower Moon
“John Grisham is the master of legal fiction, and his latest starts
with a literal bang — and then travels backward through the
horrors of war to explore what makes a hero, what makes a villain,
and how thin the line between the two might be.”
—Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author
of A Spark of Light and Small Great Things
“In this saga of love and war, John Grisham has given us a
sprawling and engrossing story about a southern family, a global
conflict, and the kinds of secrets that can shape all of us.
From the courtrooms and jails of rural Mississippi to the war-torn
Pacific, Grisham spins a tale that is at once entertaining and
illuminating.”
—Jon Meacham, New York Times bestselling author
of The Soul of America
“When a master of storytelling and suspense takes on one of the
most wrenching stories in history, the result is a book that will
break your heart, set your blood pumping and your mind racing, and
leave you gasping for breath by the final page. I’m still trying to
recover from The Reckoning.”
–Candice Millard, New York Times bestselling author
of The River of Doubt and Destiny of the Republic
