Wandered through the library the other day, and picked up this 2021 John Grisham book, The Judge's List. I wanted something I could count on to surprise me. Grisham is consistent and did not disappoint.
Jeri Crosby's father was murdered twenty years ago. She's been obsessed with solving this crime, uncovered a suspect, and stalked this serial killer. Indeed, she's tied this man to eight murders and has now contacted Lacy Stolz who works for the Florida Board of Judicial Contact.
But how to prove? cover blurb. The man is brilliant, patient, and always one step ahead of law enforcement. He is the most cunning. He knows forensics, police procedure, and most important: he knows the Law.
(Cue dramatic music)
He is a judge, in Florida - under Lacy's jurisdiction, and he appears to have a list of targets. Folks have crossed his path and wronged him. They end up with a distinctive rope tied around their neck with a double clove hitch knot. Yikes!
How can Jeri and Lacy avoid his list and bring him in to confess? Read the The Judge's List and find out. Keep your lights on.
