John Grisham The Pelican Brief

Produktbeskrivelse

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The classic legal thriller that inspired the blockbuster film starring Julia Roberts and Denzel Washington "There is a propulsiveness to [Grisham's] narrative that keeps the pages turning briskly."-- People In suburban Georgetown, a killer's Reeboks whisper on the floor of a posh home. In a seedy D.C. porno house a patron is swiftly garroted to death. The next day America learns that two of its Supreme Court justices have been assassinated. And in New Orleans a young law student prepares a legal brief. . . . To Darby Shaw it was no more than a legal shot in the dark, a brilliant guess. To the Washington establishment it was political dynamite. Suddenly Darby is witness to a murder--a murder intended for her. Going underground, she finds there is only one person she can trust--an ambitious reporter after a newsbreak hotter than Watergate--to help her piece together the deadly puzzle. Somewhere between the bayous of Louisiana and the White House's inner sanctums, a violent cover-up is being engineered. For someone has read Darby's brief. Someone who will stop at nothing to destroy the evidence of an unthinkable crime.
