A review by katreadingbooks
The Guardians by John Grisham

5.0

John Grisham does not disappoint. This time he took on the topic of wrongly convicted prisoners and the lawyer trying to free them. This book was inspired by a true innocent work agency and Joe Bryan's story of being wrongly incarcerated.

Grisham tells a story of a lawyer Cullen Post and his work two free two clients. It follows his visits with the inmates, his team and their investigation, and trial for exoneration. I enjoyed the details Grisham uses down to explaining during a prison visit how the visitor is allowed to purchase food from a vending machine for the inmate.

This book is full of wonderful characters and lots of twists. I have to say my favorite character is Frankie, Post's associate. This character is a good blend of both worlds being written about.
