He was supposed to be having fun with his friends, not playing detective and stalking a serial killer.

Theodore Boone: The Fugitive by John Grisham features Theodore Boone, a teenage lawyer and courtroom hero, who is on a class trip seeing the sights of the capital city. But he hadn't counted on seeing the most wanted man in the history of his home town, Strattenberg.

Suddenly, Theo is caught in the hunt for an accused murderer, alongside the FBI. Theo knows he's getting in deepβ€”and things could become even more dangerous. Because if this case goes back to court, it will be down to him.

Will justice finally be done... or will the killer's criminal allies be out for revenge?
