La viuda / John Grisham ; traducción de María del Puerto Barrúetabeña, Raul García Campos y Laura Rins Calahorra.
"Simon Latch es un abogado en la zona rural de Virginia, que apenas gana lo suficiente para pagar sus cuentas mientras su matrimonio se desmorona lentamente. Un día, entra en su oficina Eleanor Barnett, una anciana viuda que necesita un nuevo testamento. Al parecer, su marido le dejó una pequeña fortuna, y nadie lo sabe. Tras conseguir a la clienta más rica de su carrera, Simon trabaja discretamente para mantener su riqueza en secreto. Pero pronto la historia de Eleanor empieza a desmoronarse. Cuando ella es hospitalizada tras un accidente de coche, Simon se da cuenta de que nada es lo que parece y se ve envuelto en un juicio por un crimen que jura no haber cometido: asesinato. Él sabe que es inocente. Pero también que las pruebas circunstanciales están en su contra y que podría pasar el resto de su vida entre rejas. Para salvarse, debe encontrar al verdadero asesino..."--Back cover.
