A true classic :) 5 - stars

A true classic and still as good as when I read some 25 years ago. Jack Brigance, rookie lawyer, must face the biggest and probably the most impossible/important case of his young career. Carl Hailey kills in cold blood the  two white men who raped his daughter and left her for dead. Can a young enthusiastic and bright lawyer use his oratory skills to save Bailey from the death chamber! The story will have you gripped from page one and you will race towards a tense conclusion in this 700 page extravaganza
