From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of
Presumed Innocent comes a compelling new legal
mystery featuring George Mason from Personal
Injuries. Originally commissioned and published in the
New York Times Magazine, this edition contains
additional material.
Life would seem to have
gone well for George Mason. His days as a criminal defense
lawyer are long behind him. At fifty-nine, he has sat as a
judge on the Court of Appeals in Kindle County for nearly a
decade. Yet, when a disturbing rape case is brought before
him, the judge begins to question the very nature of the law
and his role within it. What is troubling George Mason so
deeply? Is it his wife's recent diagnosis? Or the strange
and threatening emails he has started to receive? And what
is it about this horrific case of sexual assault, now on
trial in his courtroom, that has led him to question his
fitness to judge?
In Limitations, Scott
Turow, the master of the legal thriller, returns to Kindle
County with a page-turning entertainment that asks the
biggest questions of all. Ingeniously, and with great
economy of style, Turow probes the limitations not only of
the law but of human understanding itself.
