Scott Turow is the world-famous author of six best-selling novels about the law, from Presumed Innocent (1987) to Reversible Errors (2002), which centres on a death penalty case. He lives with his family outside Chicago where he is partner in the firm of Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal.
Fascinating * True Crime * Slim, poignant and hugely powerful musing on America and the death penalty . . . a forensic and yet heartfelt and even troubled examination of the cases for and against capital punishment, and its spare and elegant prose will leave no side in the debate feeling short-changed . . . The book's power lies in Turow's own initial ambivalence - and there is no reason to suspect this is literary artifice . . . He never hectors or judges and yet effortlessly steers the reader to the close * Daily Telegraph * Gripping and lucid consideration of America's continued application of the death penalty * Sunday Times * The strength of his book is that it is the product of genuine open-mindedness rather than of an opinion firmly held from the very outset . . . his book makes a case against capital punishment all the stronger for not being strident * Sunday Telegraph * By the end of the second page of this compelling book I had almost recanted my lifelong stance against capital punishment. Two pages later I had regained myself. Most readers will probably feel the same about the cases that have caused such joltings of sentiment . . . this is how Scott Turow, with the consummate skill of the thriller writer, portrays the reasons why a society might struggle over the question of capital punishment * Financial Times *
