About the Book

From New York Times bestselling author James Grippando, a riveting, timely story ripped from the headlines. Defense attorney Jack Swyteck defends a white college student charged in Florida's first racial terror lynching in more than a half century. When the body of Jamal Cousin, president of the pre-eminent black fraternity at the University of Florida, is discovered hogtied in the Stygian water swamps of the Suwanee River Valley, the death sets off a firestorm that threatens to rage out of control when a fellow student, Mark Towson, the president of a prominent white fraternity, is accused of the crime. Contending with rising political tensions, racial unrest, and a sensational media, Towson's defense attorney, Jack Swyteck, knows that the stakes could not be higher--inside or outside the old Suwanee County Courthouse. The evidence against his client seems overwhelming. Then Jack gets a break that could turn the case. Jamal's murder bears disturbing similarities to another lynching that occurred back in the Jim Crow days of 1944. Are the chilling parallels purely coincidental? With each twist and turn, Jack is convinced that his client may be the victim of something even more sinister than the case presented by the state attorney. For Jack, it's about the truth. And he's determined to find it, no matter what the cost.

Review :
A streamlined, effectively paced story that carries us through to the finale. Those who favor fast-moving legal thrillers will be fine with this one. -- "Booklist" Grippando is really good. -- "James Patterson" Gripping...Those looking for a legal thriller heavy on action will be rewarded. -- "Publishers Weekly" In a career highlighted by a number of superb novels, Gone Again ranks at the top of Grippando's work. -- "Miami Herald on Gone Again, winner of the 2017 Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction" One of his best...Grippando gets under way with a bang and never lets up, springing a series of carefully calibrated surprises in and out of the courtroom, guaranteed to catch even the canniest readers unaware. -- "Kirkus Reviews, on Most Dangerous Place" Tackling racism, white supremacists, and a generations-old lynching, the book is admirably heartfelt and humane. -- "Kirkus Reviews" Think Gone Girl meets Grisham, then throw in shocking twists and turns that will keep you on edge as you race to the end. -- "Linda Fairstein, on Cane and Abe"
