Özet
 In the long-awaited successor to the novel that launched his phenomenal career, John Grisham brings us the powerful sequel to A Time to Kill. As filled with page-turning twists as it is with legal mastery, Sycamore Row proves beyond doubt that John Grisham is in a league of his own.

Jake Brigance has never met Seth Hubbard, or even heard of him, until the old man's suicide note names him attorney for his estate. The will is dynamite. Seth has left ninety per cent of his vast, secret fortune to his housemaid.

The vultures are circling even before the body is cold: the only subject more incendiary than money in Ford County is race, and this case has both.

AS the relatives contest the will, and unscrupulous lawyers hasten to benefit, Jake searches for answers to the many questions left by Seth Hubbard's death:

What made him write that last-minute will leaving everything to a poor black woman named Lettie Lang?

Why did he choose to kill himself on the desolate piece of land known as Sycamore Row?

And what was it that Seth and his brother witnessed as children that, in his words, 'no human should ever see'?

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes its well written well read and entertaining.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The centar Character is well rounded but not perfect. He first appeared in A Time to Kill this book references back to that book but this stands alone.If you try this book and enjoy it defiantly get A Time to Kill which has the edge in my opinion.

Any additional comments?

I have listened to all the unabridged Grisham on audible and enjoyed them all but I especially like the earlier grittier stories. I also prefer the earlier longer books that really take the time to build critter and tension.
Look out for William Dufris as the narrater of the early books he is my favourite reader and does a great job.

What did you like most about Sycamore Row?

This is an interesting and unusual mystery that grips you right from the beginning. It has twists and turns that are unexpected and is set up with the main theme NOT around a murder, which is intriguing.

What other book might you compare Sycamore Row to, and why?

I cannot compare this to another book as from the start it is a unique storyline and the uniqueness runs through the book.

What about Michael Beck’s performance did you like?

A very expressive performance with each character clearly given his or her own voice and read in a way that kept you listening and enthralled.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were many moving moments in this book and it left me with a story I will not forget.

Excellent read

I nearly gave up with this story as the first half of the book is very slow, but very glad I didn't. The story has great unexpected turns and speeds up towards the end. Really "unputdownable!" Very well narrated.

What an excellent story

John Grisham is at the absolute top of his game with Sycamore Row. Returning to the world of Jake Brigance, this story kicks off with a literal bang: Seth Hubbard takes his own life, but not before throwing a legal hand grenade into the lives of everyone he knew.

By disinheriting his family and leaving his vast fortune to his Black housemaid, Letty Lang, Hubbard sets the stage for a courtroom war that is about to set Mississippi ablaze.

Watching the entitled Hubbard family scramble when they realise they’ve been cut out is gripping. The tension only ramps up when a flashy, big-city lawyer rolls into town to "help" Letty, creating a fascinating power struggle with our protagonist, Jake.

This isn’t just about money; it’s an epic drama that spans generations, unearthing buried secrets and racial tensions the town of Clanton would rather keep hidden.

Honestly, this is some of the best prose I’ve ever encountered. Grisham’s pacing is perfect, and his ability to build suspense in a courtroom is unmatched.

This book will absolutely rip your heart out. It’s an emotional rollercoaster. Make sure you have a box of tissues ready!

5/5





This novel will rip your heart to shreds.

loved this book, time flew by, as always John Grisham has you hooked, interesting and exciting, this book is part 2 of a time to kill. and unbelievable excellent book, time to kill in my eyes is one of a kind, this is up there, and that's not easy for me, I can give up quiet easily, so for all those who like a time to kill, have at it, of this is your first book in the series, I'd advise time to kill first as this is a follow on, wouldn't need to do it, but it is so much better If you do,

Great book, great listen,
