Praise for John Grisham's The Innocent Man "John Grisham's latest book has the usual touches fans have come to expect from the master of the legal thriller: suspense, shock, even a wrongful conviction and near execution. But this time, the tale is true." --Associated Press "Grisham's pared-down prose and matter-of-fact voice make tense reading." -- People "Meticulously researched . . . a compelling narrative." -- Entertainment Weekly "Skillfully told . . . An important book." -- The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Praise For Jim McCloskey's When Truth Is All You Have "A riveting and infuriating examination of criminal prosecutions, revealing how easy it is to convict the wrong person and how nearly impossible it is to undo the error." -- The Washington Post "Jim McCloskey, the godfather of the innocence movement, changed the way we think about crime and punishment." -- Texas Monthly "Jim McCloskey and Centurion are pioneers in the struggle to expose the tragedy of innocent people wrongly convicted. . . . No one has illuminated this problem more thoughtfully and persistently than McCloskey." --Bryan Stevenson, author of Just Mercy, "The flaws and lethal errors that condemn innocent people in the American legal system have caused too many for too long to needlessly suffer. Jim McCloskey and John Grisham are towering figures in law and literature shining an urgent, compelling, and critically important light on the heartbreaking wrongful convictions that compromise our legal system and remain a national tragedy." --Bryan Stevenson, New York Times bestselling author of Just Mercy " Framed should come with a warning label: Be prepared never to look at the justice system the same way again. In this collection of ten shocking wrongful-conviction cases, each stranger than fiction, you'll come away outraged by how easily so many prosecutions can and do run off the rails: investigative tunnel vision, coached witnesses, compromised jailhouse snitches, junk science, cultural bias, crooked prosecutors, and even biased judges. How grateful we all should be to John Grisham and Jim McCloskey--for raising the alarm and crusading for true justice." --Robert Kolker, New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Valley Road "In this essential collaboration, John Grisham and Jim McCloskey vividly demonstrate the need to run just as fast, if not faster, to exonerate the innocent as to punish the guilty. In ten shocking true stories, they not only convey the devastating impact of wrongful convictions on each affected person but also sound the alarm for all of us--there but for the grace of God, go I. These are remarkable stories of injustice that need to be told. And retold." --Preet Bharara, former U.S. Attorney and New York Times bestselling author of Doing Justice "These ten stories--bitter, gritty, and heartbreaking--will astound you, will inspire you, will bring your blood up to a roiling boil. Here are crimes of egregious malfeasance, perpetrated by cops, prosecutors, and jurists, that often seem more sinister than the original crimes these authorities were supposed to impartially resolve. Grisham and McCloskey, writing in crisp, propulsive prose, remind us how much hard and thoughtful work we still have to do to make America's legal system equitable, transparent, and fair." --Hampton Sides, New York Times bestselling author of The Wide Wide Sea "The truth eventually came out in these cases, but that does little to lessen the impact of this sobering look at what happens when we turn a blind eye to injustice. A powerful and infuriating must-read about ineptitude and injustice in America's legal system." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Gripping . . . Both men deliver a series of thoroughly researched spellbinders. The results are equal parts fascinating and infuriating." -- Publishers Weekly, "These ten stories--bitter, gritty, and heartbreaking--will astound you, will inspire you, will bring your blood up to a roiling boil. Here are crimes of egregious malfeasance, perpetrated by cops, prosecutors, and jurists, that often seem more sinister than the original crimes these authorities were supposed to impartially resolve. Grisham and McCloskey, writing in crisp, propulsive prose, remind us how much hard and thoughtful work we still have to do to make America's legal system equitable, transparent, and fair." --Hampton Sides, New York Times bestselling author of The Wide Wide Sea "Ten cases of egregious miscarriages of justice and their aftermaths . . . The list of perpetuated wrongs is endless, and the coauthors are empathetic to the plight of people who had nothing to do with the crimes they were accused of committing. The truth eventually came out in these cases, but that does little to lessen the impact of this sobering look at what happens when we turn a blind eye to injustice. A powerful and infuriating must-read about ineptitude and injustice in America's legal system." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Bestseller Grisham ( The Exchange ) teams up with Centurion Ministries founder McCloskey ( When the Truth Is All You Have ), whose nonprofit works to exonerate wrongly accused individuals, to tell ten such stories in this gripping account. . . . Both men deliver a series of thoroughly researched spellbinders. The results are equal parts fascinating and infuriating." -- Publishers Weekly, "Grisham does a service by elevating Jim McCloskey, who can inspire all of us to use our privilege in the service of those ensnared in the moral scandal we call a criminal justice system. . . . Years before the Innocence Project began showing Americans that their prisons hold countless people who have committed no crime, he was quietly gumshoeing his way through hard, obscure cases. Without him, it's hard to imagine Serial or Making a Murderer or the rest of our current wave of prosecution-skeptical nonfiction." -- The New York Times " Framed is Grisham's second foray into nonfiction and his storytelling skills are well-displayed here. McCloskey is founder of Centurion Ministries, which works to free the wrongly convicted. . . . [The book is] clinical, carefully assembling the stories of those wrongly imprisoned." --Associated Press "The flaws and lethal errors that condemn innocent people in the American legal system have caused too many for too long to needlessly suffer. Jim McCloskey and John Grisham are towering figures in law and literature shining an urgent, compelling, and critically important light on the heartbreaking wrongful convictions that compromise our legal system and remain a national tragedy." --Bryan Stevenson, author of Just Mercy " Framed should come with a warning label: Be prepared never to look at the justice system the same way again.

Synopsis
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * "The master of the legal thriller" (Associated Press) teams up with "the godfather of the innocence movement" ( Texas Monthly ) to share ten harrowing true stories of wrongful convictions. "Each of these stories is told with astonishing power."--David Grann, author of Killers of the Flower Moon "Gripping . . . compelling . . . What makes [ Framed ] important reading isn't the shock value advertised in the title. It's the exposure of the infuriating, recurrent factors involved in so many unrighteous convictions."-- The Washington Post John Grisham is known worldwide for his bestselling novels, but it's his real-life passion for justice that led to his work with Jim McCloskey of Centurion Ministries, the first organization dedicated to exonerating innocent people who have been wrongly convicted. Together they offer an inside look at the many injustices in our criminal justice system. A fundamental principle of our legal system is a presumption of innocence, but once someone has been found guilty, there is very little room to prove doubt. These ten true stories shed light on Americans who were innocent but found guilty and forced to sacrifice friends, families, and decades of their lives to prison while the guilty parties remained free. In each of the stories, John Grisham and Jim McCloskey recount the dramatic hard-fought battles for exoneration. They take a close look at what leads to wrongful convictions in the first place and the racism, misconduct, flawed testimony, and corruption in the court system that can make them so hard to reverse. Impeccably researched and told with page-turning suspense as only John Grisham can deliver, Framed is the story of winning freedom when the battle already seems lost and the deck is stacked against you. Look for John Grisham's forthcoming legal thriller, The Widow .

- h***2 (1177)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe book arrived swiftly packaged in a protective plastic envelope, but it was a paperback not hardcover as listed. I contacted seller and they apologized, refunded me and suggested several things to do with the book after allowing me to keep it. I have gone ahead and ordered a hardcover from the same seller. I’m a repeat customer and hope to remain so. This mixup was a first, but I’m very impressed with their prompt response and professionalism. Kudos :)
