Turow's prose is powerful . . . a tough, vivid urban poetry, singing of ambition and corruption . . . an arresting performance.

New York Times

'Scott Turow is master of the legal thriller' – The Guardian

Set in a world of corporate conspiracy, money and murder, Pleading Guilty is Scott Turow's third Kindle County legal thriller. His first Kindle County thriller, Presumed Innocent, is now a major TV series from Apple TV+ starring Jake Gyllenhaal.

Meet Mack Malloy. Ex-cop, not-quite-ex-drunk, and partner-on-the-wane in one of the country's most high-powered law firms. A long-time ally of the wayward, Mack is on the trail of a colleague: his firm's star litigator, who has vanished with more than five million dollars of a client's money.

It’s a trail that will take him into the enthralling and ominous heart of a city, as Mack desperately fights to reinvent himself from the depths of his own shattered soul . . .
