About this listen

 In the corridors of Chicago's top law firm:

Twenty-six-year-old Adam Hall stands on the brink of a brilliant legal career. Now he is risking it all for a death-row killer and an impossible case.

Maximum Security Unit, Mississippi State Prison:

Sam Cayhall is a former Klansman and unrepentant racist now facing the death penalty for a fatal bombing in 1967. He has run out of chances -- except for one: the young, liberal Chicago lawyer who just happens to be his grandson. While the executioners prepare the gas chamber, while the protesters gather and the TV cameras wait, Adam has only days, hours, minutes to save his client. For between the two men is a chasm of shame, family lies, and secrets -- including the one secret that could save Sam Cayhall's life...or cost Adam his.

Couldn't stop listening. One of the best Grishams I have heard. I was enthralled from the first chapter until the very end.

Captivating

Another great book. Do you find out in the end? you will have to listen to find out.

Another great book

Grisham takes us on an horrific journey through the American legal process when it’s applied to the death penalty. He is truly committed to fight this barbaric system.

Not just a novel a treatise.

The Chamber - Good story telling

The story doesn't have the speed or direction of some of Grisham's thrillers. It captures the hopelessness of death row, but more importantly the hopelessness of somebody on death row with very little positive about their present or past life.

The narrator is excellent. He manages to keep a rather pedestrian story moving along.

Depressing Story. Very Good Narration
