Can anyone name the John Grisham book about a large trial with someone trying to tamper with the jury? (lemmynsfw.com)

I think it's a tobacco trial. The main character is the wife of one of the jurors? I think the bad guy / big company is trying to buy the jurors out by using the services of the wife

The sequel, The Rural Juror, is good , too.

Well that not a sequel to the book. Never watched that show seen clips though.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Correct.

I don't think that show ever watched clips. Are you sure you watched it'd seen clips? Maybe you watched how another show had seen clips and thought it was this one?

Can a show watch clips?

Is that the John Cusack movie?

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Yep that's the one. Saw the movie first later meaning in last year read the book and was shocked that it wasn't about guns. Damn good novel. All of his books are great, but not all have happy endings.

One of his better books I thought.
