Javorov drvored

Javorov drvored

John Grisham

Seth Hubbard ist ein selbstsüchtiger, reicher Mann aus dem Süden, der an Krebs stirbt und niemandem vertraut. Bevor Hubbard Selbstmord begeht, indem er sich an einem Ahornbaum erhängt, hinterlässt er ein neues, handgeschriebenes Testament.

Dabei verwickelt er seine erwachsenen Kinder, eine schwarze Haushälterin und den Anwalt Jake Brigance in einen ebenso angespannten und dramatischen Konflikt wie den Prozess wegen der Ermordung eines kleinen Mädchens, der vor drei Jahren für Reibereien zwischen schwarzen und weißen Bewohnern des landwirtschaftlichen Fords sorgte County, im US-Bundesstaat Mississippi, und Anwalt Brigance und seine Familie hätten beinahe das Leben gekostet. Hubbards neues Testament wirft eine Reihe scheinbar unlösbarer Fragen auf. Warum sollte ein reicher Mann aus dem Süden fast sein gesamtes Vermögen einer afroamerikanischen Haushälterin hinterlassen? Haben Chemotherapie und Schmerzmittel seine Denkfähigkeit beeinträchtigt? Und was hat das alles mit dem Land namens Javorov Drvored zu tun? Während er sich an die Lösung dieser Fragen macht, wird Brigances Anwalt allmählich klar, dass dies das dunkelste Geheimnis des noch immer rassisch gespaltenen Ford County ans Licht bringen wird ...
