Description
In 1970, The Ford County Times, one of Mississipi's more colourful weekly
newspapers, went bankrupt. To the surprise and dismay of many, ownership
was assumed by 23-year-old college drop-out, Willie Traynor. The future of
the paper looked grim until a young mother was brutally raped and murdered
by a member of the notorious Padgittt family. Traynor reported all the
gruesome details, and his newspaper began to prosper. The murderer, Danny
Padgitt, was tried before a packed courtroom in Clanton, Mississippi. The
trial came to a startling, dramatic end when the defendant threatened
revenge against the jurors if they convicted him. Nevertheless, they found
him guilty, and he was sentenced to life in prison. But in Mississippi in
1970 'life' didn't necessarily mean 'life', and nine years later Danny
Padgitt managed to get himself paroled. He returned to Ford County, and the
retribution began. 'Masterful... When Grisham gets in the courtroom he lets
rip, drawing scenes so real they're not just alive, they're pulsating...
