The Last Juror - John Grisham

Grisham has always been one of my favorite authors so I was very excited when I started reading this one. It however turned out that Will Traynor played the central part in this story and the murder of Rhoda Kassellaw along with the murderer Danny Padgitt acted as a mere backdrop. Though the novel gives a glimpse into the life in a small American town, it's not definitely what you expect from a John Grisham novel now, do you? I waited forever for the twist in the tale but the event that was probably supposed to be it felt like a huge disappointment.

Frankly, I am not sure why York Evening Press called it "probably Grisham's bets novel in a decade". :-(
