NOW AN APPLE ORIGINAL SERIES FROM APPLE TV+ STARRING JAKE GYLLENHAAL

From #1 New York Times bestselling author and hailed as the most suspenseful and compelling novel in decades, this story brings to life our worst nightmare: that of an ordinary citizen facing conviction for the most terrible of all crimes.

Rusty Sabich, family man and the number-two prosecutor of Kindle County, is handed an explosive case--the brutal murder of a woman who happens to be his former lover. A shocking turn of events suddenly transforms him from the accuser into the accused... and plunges him into a nightmare world where nothing seems real and no one can be PRESUMED INNOCENT.

It's the stunning portrayal of one man's all-too-human, all-consuming fatal attraction for a passionate woman who is not his wife, and the story of how his obsession puts everything he loves and values on trial--including his own life. It's a book that lays bare a shocking world of betrayal and murder, as well as the hidden depths of the human heart. And it will hold you and haunt you...long after you have reached its shattering conclusion.

I re-read this in preparation to read his new sequel. Read it last when it first came out - totally forgot that this man can really write. Even knowing the ending, I was absolutely riveted. He turns a beautiful phrase and really has characters you feel you know. Wonderful narration too. You won't be disappointed.

forgot how good this was

This book kept my interest so much that I listened to it straight through. I could listen to the words of Turow forever. He knows how to tell a story and keep you on the edge of your seat. I can't wait to listen to the next one! I definitely recommend it.

Overall a great book. This was my first introduction to Scott Turow which I really enjoyed. There were many characters, good and bad. It took some work to finally figure out who was who. Then midstream some would change sides. I enjoyed the depth the writer would go to keep me involved. The description of the characters was outstanding and with the audio involved I had really great visual images of everyone. Great visual images reached throughout the book. The story line was great and never slow or got mundane. The story kept moving with the guilty or innocent changing places. I loved the book and the audio was just the icing on a very big cake.

Edward Herrmann was outstanding with the delivery of the story

Great Legal Thriller

It has been years since I read a Scott Turow book. Now, I remember why he was one of my favorite authors.

The book is well written. The characters are interesting and the plot twists and turns in unexpected ways. The ending would be a surprise to many. The courtroom action kept me on the edge of my seat. I highly recommend this book.

The book is fifteen hours and thirty-four minutes. Edward Herrmann does an excellent job narrating the book. Herrmann (1943-2014) was a well-known narrator of the history channel and audiobooks. He was an actor and famous for his portrayal of Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Captivating

Not a fast paced story (for the genre). It moves in a languorous way.
I love a look behind the scenes into the justice system, including the long periods of “hurry up, and wait”, and this delivers.
The narration was wonderfully suited.

It’s a keeper.

One of the most deftly written books that I’ve read
