Reviews"Turow keeps readers guessing... This easily ranks among Turow's best."-- Publishers Weekly, starred review, " Presumed Guilty takes you out of your comfort zone and challenges you to think long and hard about the most important issues we face as a country. Every time I pick up a new Scott Turow book, I am reminded what a national treasure he is. Few novelists are his peer when it comes to prose, plot, and character. No one does it better."-- David Baldacci, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, "No one stages courtroom scenes better than this celebrated Chicago attorney. An absorbing and entertaining read." -- Kirkus, "A compelling, unputdownable legal thriller that explores the dark side of justice in a small town and on a fractured family. Scott Turow is at the top of his game with this complex, emotionally charged courtroom drama that will keep you turning the pages as fast as you can."-- Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, "His experience shows in the courtroom scenes that effortlessly incorporate tricky legal matters and breathtaking reversals, exactly like Law and Order reruns do. Presumed Guilty has a lot to do with the specifics of a murder trial -- particularly the decision whether to have Aaron testify on his own behalf -- and Turow makes all of that convincing and gripping."-- Minnesota Star Tribune, "Every gift that made Scott Turow a phenomenon is on display in Presumed Guilty . Deep-focus plotting, implacable pace, lapidary prose, stunning climax. But above all... insight. The truth is, Turow is just better at this than the rest of us."-- Greg Iles, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, "Turow's penchant for twists that at first seem odd but are totally believable, and his intimate knowledge of the law, show how the author remains at the top of his writing skills in Presumed Guilty ."-- South Florida Sun Sentinel, "The trial that follows is a master class in legal suspense as Turow weaves together the devastation of Aaron and Bea's families, simmering racial prejudice, and the impact of smalltown politics within a framework of deliciously tense courtroom dynamics. This is manna for legal-thriller fans."-- Booklist, starred review, "A new installment in the life and times of Rusty Sabich arrives just in time for recent converts coming over from the splashy adaptation of Presumed Innocent . Turow is still at the top of his game and writes a first-class legal thriller."-- Crimereads

SynopsisRead Scott Turow's new "unputdownable" courtroom drama from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Presumed Innocent , the phenomenon that redefined the legal thriller and is the basis for Apple TV+'s most-watched drama series ever (Kristin Hannah, #1 NYT bestselling author). "No one does it better." David Baldacci, #1 NYT Bestselling Author "The truth is, Turow is just better at this than the rest of us." Greg Iles, #1 NYT Bestselling Author "This is manna for legal-thriller fans." Booklist , starred review "This easily ranks among Turow's best." Publishers Weekly , starred review "An absorbing and entertaining read." Kirkus Rusty is a retired judge attempting a third act in life with a loving soon-to-be wife, Bea, with whom he shares both a restful home on an idyllic lake in the rural Midwest and a plaintive hope that this marriage will be his best, and his last. But the peace that's taken Rusty so long to find evaporates when Bea's young adult son, Aaron, living under their supervision while on probation for drug possession, disappears. If Aaron doesn't return soon, he will be sent back to jail. Aaron eventually turns up with a vague story about a camping trip with his troubled girlfriend, Mae, that ended in a fight and a long hitchhike home. Days later, when she still hasn't returned, suspicion falls on Aaron, and when Mae is subsequently discovered dead, Aaron is arrested and set for trial on charges of first-degree murder. Faced with few choices and even fewer hopes, Bea begs Rusty to return to court one last time, to defend her son and to save their last best hope for happiness. For Rusty, the question is not whether to defend Aaron, or whether the boy is in fact innocent--it's whether the system to which he has devoted his life can ever provide true justice for those who are presumed guilty.
