| Synopsis | |
| When a plaintiff sues a tobacco company for damages caused by smoking, the trial turns into a showdown between the tobacco industries and the largest personal injury firms in the country. Billions of dollars are at stake and each side is spending millions to insure victory. But even the most experienced trial watchers are confused when the jury begins behaving oddly and a mysterious woman named Marlee is the only person able to predict their behavior in advance. Who is controlling the jury, and what is their motive? Marlee is the only one with any answers, and she's not talking. | |

| Industry reviews | |
| "The story's suspense builds like that of a lengthening cigarette ash that refuses to drop off. And the plot's eventual outcome is far more entertaining than anything Mr. Grisham has done before." New York Times - Christopher Lehmann- Haupt (05/23/1996) "If Grisham has made any innovation in the genre, it is that he concentrates even more exclusively on lawyers than do his rivals and imitators." Spectator - David Sexton (05/18/1996) "He [Grisham] still makes the reader flip the pages at an Olympic Pace, but now he finds other ways, as he did in 'The Rainmaker', to move the story along without hysterical chases and things going bump in the night....The quieter Grisham still fascinates, as he deftly keeps the reader guessing about the mystery juror's identity and motive. Grisham tells an addictive tale that will have you hooked until the very last surprise." Kadet | |
