The Judge's List

The phenomenal new legal thriller from international bestseller John Grisham. NO ONES WRITES DRAMA LIKE GRISHAM.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
From the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author, John Grisham, comes a gripping new legal thriller that dives deep into the dark underbelly of the judicial system. Unfolding in the searing heat of Florida, The Judge's List unravels a story of deadly corruption that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

As an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct, Lacy Stoltz has encountered her fair share of corrupt judges, but she has never seen anything like this. In The Whistler, she took on a crime syndicate that was paying millions to a crooked judge. Now, she faces a case where the stakes are even higher. In The Judge's List, Lacy hunts a cunning, ruthless killer hiding in plain sight.

The man cloaked in the sanctity of the judicial robe is more than just corrupt; he is a calculating predator who may be using his judicial power to eliminate those who cross him. This suspenseful narrative takes readers into the murky world of judicial misconduct, exposing the chilling reality of a man who administers justice by day and commits heinous acts by night.

The Judge's List is a masterfully woven tale of suspense, packed with twists and turns that will leave readers breathlessly turning the pages. As Lacy digs deeper, she realises that being on the list could mean more than just career destruction—it could mean her life.

The Judge's List - a list you definitely don't want to be on.
