Product details

A Time to Kill by John Grisham is a legal thriller set in the fictional town of Clanton, Mississippi. The story begins with the brutal rape of Tonya Hailey, a ten-year-old African-American girl, by two white men, Billy Ray Cobb and Pete Willard. Outraged and seeking justice, Tonya’s father, Carl Lee Hailey, kills the rapists with an M-16 rifle. Carl Lee is charged with capital murder, and he hires a young white attorney, Jake Brigance, to defend him.

The novel explores the racially charged trial, with Jake facing intense pressure from the community and threats to his safety. The prosecution, led by ambitious district attorney Rufus Buckley, aims to secure a conviction, while Jake fights to prove Carl Lee's temporary insanity at the time of the shooting. The story delves into issues of racism, justice, and morality amid escalating tension, including protests and violence by both the Ku Klux Klan and the black community. Eventually, the jury acquits Carl Lee, sympathizing with his actions as a desperate father avenging his daughter. The novel is notable for its gripping courtroom drama and exploration of complex social themes.
