Books are leather-bound, signed and numbered, with printed endpapers, gold stamping, a slipcase, and a ribbon marker. Jake Brigance returns; a death row inmate makes an unusual final request; a dysfunctional legal family gets their day in court--but maybe not the way they envisioned it. These are just a few of the unforgettable characters you'll encounter in Sparring Partners , three novellas that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that John Grisham is truly America's Favorite Storyteller.
