Více o knize
Set against the backdrop of 1968 Virginia, this courtroom drama follows a white lawyer, Jack Lee, who steps outside his comfort zone to defend Jerome Washington, a Black man wrongfully accused of murder. Partnering with Desiree DuBose, a dedicated Black lawyer from Chicago, they confront a biased legal system and a formidable prosecutor. Their contrasting backgrounds highlight the challenges they face, but together they strive for justice in a time when the Civil Rights movement's gains are under threat, seeking a fair trial against overwhelming odds.
