The Judge's list / by John Grisham.

Grisham, John, (author.).

Summary:

As an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct, Lacy Stoltz sees plenty of corruption among the men and women elected to the bench. In The whistler, she took on a crime syndicate that was paying millions to a crooked judge. Now, in The judge's list, the crimes are even worse. The man hiding behind the black robe is not taking bribes--but he may be taking lives"-- Provided by publisher.
Lacy Stoltz is tired of her work for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct, and ready for a change. Then she meets Jeri Crosby, whose father was murdered twenty years earlier in a case that remains unsolved and that has grown stone cold. Jeri has a suspect whom she has become obsessed with, and has stalked for two decades. Along the way, she has discovered other victims. Suspicion is easy-- proof seems impossible. The man is brilliant, patient, and always one step ahead of law enforcement-- he is a judge in Florida-- under Lacy's jurisdiction. How can Lacy pursue him, without becoming the next name on his list? -- adapted from jacket
