I wanted to like this story more than I did. I see what Grisham was trying to do, bring attention to how the death penalty actually works. The story was one of those plots that just kind of plods along. Often I enjoy slow building plots so I’ll give this the benefit of the doubt. I may just be bored enough from 7 months of staying in because of COVID that I wanted something with a bit more action and a quicker pace. It did hold my interest well enough to keep me reading. Just no nights of little sleep because I couldn’t put my book down.
