This fascinating sequel picks up where Presunto inocente, Turow’s fi rst and most beloved novel, left off, as a suspicious death once again pits Rusty Sabich against his arch nemesis,
Tommy Molto.
Twenty-two years later, Sabich is again suspected of murdering a woman close to him. The death of his wife Barbara from what initially appeared to be natural causes has come under the scrutiny
of Tommy Molto, who unsuccessfully prosecuted him for killing his mistress decades earlier. Rusty’s candidacy for a higher court; his recent clandestine affair with his law clerk, Anna Vostic;
and a breach of judicial ethics complicate matters further. In this riveting legal thriller, Turow once again displays an uncanny ability for crafting characters whose passions and weaknesses
are both accessible and understandable.
