"The master of the legal thriller" teams up with "the godfather of the innocence movement" to present ten harrowing true stories of wrongful convictions in America. John Grisham, known worldwide for his bestselling legal thrillers, brings his storytelling craft to these real-life cases alongside Jim McCloskey, founder of Centurion Ministries — the first organization in the world dedicated to exonerating innocent people who have been wrongly convicted.

The book examines Americans who were innocent but found guilty, forced to sacrifice friends, families, and decades of their lives to prison while the true perpetrators remained free. Each story exposes the racism, prosecutorial misconduct, flawed testimony, jailhouse snitches, junk science, and systemic corruption that lead to wrongful convictions — and the dramatic, hard-fought battles required to reverse them.

Impeccably researched and written with page-turning suspense, Framed is a work of narrative nonfiction in the true crime genre that forces readers to confront deep-seated failures in the American criminal justice system.
