About this listen

*** SHORTLISTED FOR THE ALCS GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION 2025***
Ten wrongful conviction cases.
Twenty-one innocent people.
Framed tells ten stories with a truth more shocking than fiction.

John Grisham, the master of the legal thriller, teams up with Jim McCloskey, who has dedicated his life to exonerating innocent people, to uncover stories that shine an astonishing light on miscarriages of justice. All the cases in this book are simply extraordinary. And all are true.

Joe Bryan suffered the unbearable tragedy of his wife's murder, only to be tried and found guilty of the crime himself - despite being 120 miles away at the time it was committed.

Clarence Brandley spent nine years on Death Row, coming to within six days of execution, before new evidence cleared him of all charges.

And in the case of the Norfolk Four, police and prosecutors continued to arrest innocent people until not one but four men were behind bars.

Impeccably researched and told with page-turning conviction, in Framed, these cases are finally laid bare.
Most importantly, they show how truth can prevail and how freedom can be won when all seems lost.

'Each of these stories is told with astonishing power. They are packed with human drama, with acts of shocking villainy and breathtaking courage. But these are more than just gripping true stories - they are a clarion call for reforming the tragic flaws in our criminal justice system' David Grann, New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower Moon©2024 John Grisham and Jim McCloskey (P)2024 Hodder & Stoughton Limited

Critic reviews

A brave book telling stories of injustice that everyone should know. Researched in detail and told with heartfelt conviction, this is an important book that should be required reading for anyone interested in the criminal justice system and the cost of its failures. (Lisa Ballantyne, author of The Innocent One)

Framed is a riveting journey into the dark corners of the US justice system. What we find there is difficult to fathom: bias, corruption, ineptitude and a shocking level of apathy in the face of life or death. Told with academic rigour but with the pace and drama of a legal thriller, it is moving, enraging, illuminating, and every bit as gripping as the best of Grisham's fiction. (Kia Abdullah, author of Truth Be Told)

This listen was very interesting. I could not put it down. Eye opening, but is very sad.
