What's The Fugitive About

Publisher Summary

Theodore Boone returns in this fifth adventure from #1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham, master of the modern legal thriller Theo Boone thought the danger had passed, but he’s about to face off against an old adversary: accused murderer and fugitive Pete Duffy. On a field trip to Washington, DC, Theo spots a familiar face on the Metro: Duffy, who jumped bail and was never seen again. Theo’s quick thinking helps bring Duffy back to Strattenburg to stand trial. But now that Duffy knows who he is, Theo is in greater danger than he’s ever been in before. Even when everything is on the line, Theodore Boone will stop at nothing to make sure a killer is brought to justice. Praise for the Theodore Boone series Edge-of-your-seat drama, sophisitcated plotting, and plenty of spunk.–Chicago Sun-Times Not since Nancy Drew has a nosy, crime-obsessed kid been so hard to resist.–The New York Times Classic Grisham.–The Los Angeles Times
