Product Information

An innocent man is about to be executed. Only a guilty man can save him. For every innocent man sent to prison, there is a guilty one left on the outside. He doesn't understand how the police and prosecutors got the wrong man, and he certainly doesn't care. He just can't believe his good luck. Time passes and he realizes that the mistake will not be corrected: the authorities believe in their case and are determined to get a conviction. He may even watch the trial of the person wrongly accused of his crime. He is relieved when the verdict is guilty. He laughs when the police and prosecutors congratulate themselves. He is content to allow an innocent person to go to prison, to serve hard time, even to be executed. Travis Boyette is such a man. In 1998, in the small East Texas city of Sloan, he abducted, raped, and strangled a popular high school cheerleader. He buried her body so that it would never be found, then watched in amazement as police and prosecutors arrested and convicted Dont Drumm, a local football star, and marched him off to death row. Now nine years have passed. Travis has just been paroled in Kansas for a different crime; Dont is four days away from his execution. Travis suffers from an inoperable brain tumor. For the first time in his miserable life, he decides to do what's right and confess. But how can a guilty man convince lawyers, judges, and politicians that they're about to execute an innocent man?

  • Grisham's 'The Confession' Must Read!

    Somewhere along the line I stopped reading Grisham's works, because they I longer found his lawyer characters or their situations to be of interest. I decided to give him another chance with The Confession as I had the sense from reading descriptions of the story that it would not be so lawyer centered, and I was right. I don't use this term lightly; the book was a real page-turner, right from the beginning. It's easy to become preachy when using a novel as a bully pulpit for expressing one's views on the death penalty, but Grisham easily avoides that pitfall.

  • The Confession

    The arrival date was as said I would receive the book. Reading the book is just outstanding.

  • Grisham does it again!

    A great book by Grisham. He has an authentic way of making the reader feel the emotions that the characters are portraying - I felt the hurriedness of the moments as people were trying to save the life of a man on death row, the conflictions of the preacher, etc. I also felt heartbreak for some and disgust for others. Incredible book that makes you consider your thoughts on the justice system and the death penalty.
