The listing, *1ST EDITION hardback* The Confession- John Grisham has ended.
First edition hardback (See Photos) by John Grisham. Smoke free home and in like new condition, including jacket cover.
SYNOPSIS: Nine years ago in the small town of Sloan, Texas, Donté Drumm, a black high school football star, was tried, convicted, and sentenced to death for the murder of a white cheerleader –- a crime he confessed to but did not commit. The victim's body was never found, the jury was all white, the confession was coerced, the judge was having an extramarital affair with the prosecutor, the victim's boyfriend and a jailhouse snitch both provided perjured testimony against the defendant, and one of the key witnesses for the prosecution was a dog. Despite all this, and the tireless efforts of Drumm's crusading defense attorney Robbie Flak, the execution is only days away. There appears to be no hope. But meanwhile, in Topeka, Kansas, a just-paroled convict named Travis Boyette, dying (or so he says) of a brain tumor and not wanting to see the innocent Drumm die, confesses to the murder to Lutheran pastor Keith Schroeder, and they rush to Texas in an attempt to prevent the execution. Will they succeed, or will a demonstrably innocent man be executed?
