It 'been killed a child of nine years. The small body, no traces of sexual assault, was found at the bottom of a well. A heinous crime, quite inexplicable, of which 'accused, after prompt investigation, a peddler from Senegal, Abdou Thiam, who works at the beach near the house where the child and the grandparents' used to play. Nail the Senegalese clues and evidence, but also a photo and the comments of a barista. A destiny of the case marked: without resources, the office waiting for a hasty defense and twenty expedited. But it 's a lot that clashes with that of a lawyer is in crisis, in the fight to save a suitor Abdou defense, a new taste of life. Abdou and 'really innocent? How to demolish the mountain accusatory? It is said that the ritual is not suited to the Italian case legal thriller genre, so popular in the Anglo-Saxon world. But the story of Carofiglio unravels his plot in a courtroom following step by step the work of an Assize Court, with judges, defense lawyers and plaintiffs, the jury, the prosecutor: e of the game here, in the phrasing of boredom and twist, or CA rhetorical and deadly sinking of a rebuttal, thereby creating the tension of surprise, to insinuate doubt and, above all, anxious to attract the expected release of a justice.
(Gianrico Carofiglio, Sellerio )
My opinion: definitely a good legal thriller. Carofiglio with this novel, manages to thrill the player. The book rushes, including the sad story of Abdou and the existential crisis Warriors of the lawyer. In the background are also three women: the wife of the Egyptian Senegal (forced to return home and then to abandon it), the former wife of Warriors (who leaves him because of a failed relationship immaturity 'lawyer) and Margaret (a girl who is' out of the tunnel of alcoholism). Personally, although very attractive to the arguments used, I found a little 'heavy on the part of the final all'arringa Warriors. What will save 'Abdou, but running a bit' more 'slowly than other parts of the book.
