Beschreibung

<b>From the award-winning, bestselling author of <i>Snow Falling on Cedars</i>—a moving father-son story that is also a taut courtroom drama and a bold examination of privilege, power, and how to live a meaningful life.</b><br><br> <b>"Ultimately, the mystery at the center of <i>The Final Case</i> is not about innocence or guilt, but about how one family’s profound attachments can stand alongside breathtaking cruelty in another.” —Scott Turow, <i>The New York Times Book Review</i></b><br><br> A girl dies one late, rainy night a few feet from the back door of her home. The girl, Abeba, was born in Ethiopia. Her adoptive parents, Delvin and Betsy Harvey—conservative, white fundamentalist Christians—are charged with her murder.<br><br> Royal, a Seattle criminal attorney in the last days of his long career, takes Betsy Harvey’s case. An octogenarian without a driver’s license, he leans on his son—the novel’s narrator—as he prepares for trial.<br><br> So begins <i>The Final Case</i>, a bracing, astute, and deeply affecting examination of justice and injustice—and familial love. David Guterson’s first courtroom drama since <i>Snow Falling on Cedars</i>, it is his most compelling and heartfelt novel to date.
