Any fan of mysteries and thrillers knows if you read enough of them, you'll eventually develop a knack for predicting the outcome. Read a handful of Agatha Christies and you've nailed down her pattern. Harry Bosch will prevail over evil, Spenser will find justice, Bernie will be exonerated. It doesn't diminish the fun of getting there --- I've enjoyed every one and can't wait for the next release --- but Scott Turow's legal thrillers are clearly on a different plane. They're never predictable; he can pack more surprises into a plot than you would think imaginable.

Es una gris y áspera primavera en Kindle County, un condado del Medio Oeste donde el abogado Rusty Sabich, miembro de la oficina del fiscal, está investigando el asesinato de una colega, Carolyn Polhemus. Carolyn era fuerte y magnética, pero también ambiciosa y posiblemente sin escrúpulos. Su asesinato ha avergonzado al jefe de Rusty, Raymond Horgan, quien se enfrenta a un gran desafío en las próximas elecciones y exige a Rusty una solución rápida al caso que podría salvar su carrer política. Lo que Horgan no sabe es que, pocos meses antes del asesinato, Carolyn y Rusty eran amantes.  Con su matrimonio y su carrera estancados, la investigación de Rusty le permite sumergirse en su obsesión con Carolyn, quien había terminado abruptamente su relación con él seis meses antes, y en la búsqueda de su asesino. Pero al perder Hogan la elección, Rusty de repente se encuentra acusado del asesinato de Carolyn y atrapado en una desesperada lucha por demostrar su inocencia. Emocionante y absorbente, Presunto inocente nos presenta las luces y las sombras de una ciudad del Medio Oeste americano, un mundo de intensas lealtades y nublosas verdades —un mundo que perseguirá al lector mucho después de que el misterio central de esta novela magistral se haya resuelto.

Rommy "Squirrel" Gandloph is an inmate on death row for a 1991 triple murder. His slow progress toward execution is nearing completion when Arthur Raven, a corporate lawyer and Rommy's reluctant representative, receives word of new evidence that will exonerate Gandolph. Arthur's opponent is the formidable prosecuting attorney Muriel Wynn. Together with Larry Starczek, the original detective on the case, she is determined to see Rommy's fate sealed. Meanwhile the judge who originally found him guilty is just out of prison herself. Scott Turow's compelling, multi-dimensional characters take the reader into Kindle County's parallel yet intersecting worlds of weary police, small-time crooks and ambitious lawyers. No other writer offers such a convincing picture of how the law and life interact - or such a profound understanding of what is at stake when the state holds the power to end a man's life.
