Before The Firm and The Pelican Brief made him a superstar, John Grisham wrote this riveting story of retribution and justice -- at last it's available in a Doubleday hardcover edition. In this searing courtroom drama, best-selling author John Grisham probes the savage depths of racial violence...as he delivers a compelling tale of uncertain justice in a small southern town...Clanton, Mississippi.
The life of a ten-year-old girl is shattered by two drunken and remorseless young man. The mostly white town reacts with shock and horror at the inhuman crime. Until her black father acquires an assault rifle -- and takes justice into his own outraged hands.
For ten days, as burning crosses and the crack of sniper fire spread through the streets of Clanton, the nation sits spellbound as young defense attorney Jake Brigance struggles to save his client's life...and then his own...
From the Hardcover edition.

殺戮時刻是以律師為男一號,以一起報復殺人案的審理為主綫,不厭其煩地講述瞭美國刑事司法體係的運作程序,律師、檢察官、法官之間的閤作互動、勾心鬥角、嬉笑怒罵,陪審團的遴選與案情評議,精神病鑒定專傢的當庭錶演,控辯雙方的法庭辯論,可謂一幅麵麵俱到、惟妙惟肖的美國...

評分Hey, two month passed since I first started to read this novel. It is a interesting and worth reading novel, although it is not necessarily my cup of tea. This story is full of up and down, good and wrong. Racism and justice, as a window to understand the A...
評分其實這本小說更像是關於美國法製製度的生動寫照。很慶幸的是,在之前看瞭林達的《曆史深處的憂慮》,所以對美國的政治法律製度有點瞭解,不然看這本原版的英文估計十分睏難; 美國的律師行業十分發達,通過這部小說可以充分體現,隨隨便便一個普通人在生活的不同階段都可能需...
