Event Details
Is your copy of War and Peace propping open the front door? Have you started Pride and Prejudice more times than your car? If so, join the book club devoted to turning that masterpiece into a piece of cake! We’ll tackle another classic work each month to see if it deserves its place on history’s highest shelf.
This month, we are reading: Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow
Description from the publisher:
Hailed as one of the most suspenseful and compelling novels in decades upon its publication in 1987, Presumed Innocent brings to life our worst nightmare: that of an ordinary citizen facing conviction for the most terrible of all crimes. It's the stunning portrayal of one man's all-too-human, all-consuming fatal attraction for a passionate woman who is not his wife, and the story of how his obsession puts everything he loves and values on trial—including his own life. It's a book that lays bare a shocking world of betrayal and murder, as well as the hidden depths of the human heart. And it will hold you and haunt you ... long after you have reached its shattering conclusion.
