FRAMED

John Grisham, Jim McCloskey
TEN STORIES MORE SHOCKING THAN FICTION.For fans of John Grisham's page-turning legal thrillers, Framed is told with all the conviction of an edge-of-your-seat courtroom drama. John Grisham's first work of non-fiction since The Innocent Man, Framed uncovers stories that shine an astonishing light on miscarriages of justice. Written with Jim McCloskey, all the cases in this book are simply extraordinary. And all are true.Joe Bryan suffered the unbearable tragedy of his wife's murder, only to be tried and found guilty of the crime himself - despite being 120 miles away at the time it was committed. Clarence Brandley spent nine years on Death Row, coming to within six days of execution, before new evidence cleared him of all charges. And in the case of the Norfolk Four, police and prosecutors continued to arrest innocent people until not one but four men were behind bars.An instant New York Times bestseller, Framed is an impeccably researched and grippingly told exposé of the US criminal justice system.
