What to expect
'Scott Turow is master of the legal thriller' – The Guardian
Full of suspicion and half-truths, The Burden of Proof is Scott Turow's second Kindle County legal thriller. His first Kindle County thriller, Presumed Innocent, is now a major TV series from Apple TV+ starring Jake Gyllenhaal.
One afternoon in late March, Sandy Stern, a brilliant, quixotic defence lawyer, returns home to find his wife Clara dead in the garage. They had been married for thirty-one years.
Her suicide note leaves him just four words: 'Can you forgive me?' But on 6 March, Clara had expected to live . . .
Praise for Scott Turow:
'Head-and-shoulders above others in the legal thriller genre he created' – The Observer
'A brilliant chronicler of contemporary America' – The Sunday Times
'Turow does legal thrillers better than anyone else' – Irish Independent
'Worthy to be ranked with Dashiell Hammet or Raymond Chandler' – The New York Times
'No one writes better mystery suspense novels than Scott Turow' – Los Angeles Times
Critics Review
A delight . . . over 500 pages of suspicion, allegation, detection, false confessions and half-truths . . . tied up so tightly that you’re holding your breath in anticipation . . . hugely readable
Expert and excellent . . . The Burden of Proof is a new sort of novel – a detective story full of people on the make, on the break or settling for second best: a riveting tale
A wonderful read from tight start to taut end
