Scott Turow's-- "INNOCENT"

Scott Turow's newest book, Innocent, is a great weekend for those who enjoy courtroom dramas. It is a "continuation" of his 1987 surprise ending book, Presumed Innocent, which was made into the hit movie with Harrison Ford as the tough prosecutor, Rusty Savich. His newest offering has many of the same characters, including Sandy Stern, the classy defense lawyer, although everyone is now twenty-three years older. For those of us that have tried a case or two-- or a hundred or two cases-- in court, this is an especially enjoyable and entertaining novel from Mr. Turow, a writer that has actually been in a courtroom. I strongly recommend it to all.

  2. I was having trouble sleeping and then I remembered a song. "When the love~a~bug bites the bite begins to scratch, he keeps right on a~bitin' and then he begins to hatch, he makes the old feel young and the poor feel rich, he's just a little thing they call the love~a~bug itch." I can sleep now!Thank you for listening. I miss you and your wisdom as well. jma
