Reviews

It’s more than 20 years since Scott Turow introduced us to Rusty Sabich, the flawed hero of his excellent debut courtroom thriller, Presumed Innocent. In this keenly anticipated sequel…Turow keeps the suspense ratcheted up in the gripping courtroom scenes and springs a succession of clever twists… First rate
One of this year’s most rewarding thrillers… Compelling courtroom drama is once more combined with Philip Roth-like stylistic verve and psychological insight
If the opening of this stylish court room thriller does not grip you like a vice, you must be very hard to please … Scott Turow has consistently out-Grishamed, and this sequel to his 1987 bestseller Presumed Innocent sees him at full creative throttle … the book is a terrific read, with hidden emotional depths
Innocent is as gripping as a Grisham page-turner. Not only is it beautifully written and expert in its psychological probing, but it is as insightful about marriage, adultery and fatherhood as any one of Richard Ford or Philip Roth’s studies of middle-aged men in crisis
