A Time to Kill

- Author name: John Grisham
- Date published: 1989

One of the most established legal thriller writers working today, John Grisham has seen ongoing success with his first book, “A Time to Kill,” which remains a favorite among fans of his work. After his daughter is assaulted by two racist men, Carl Lee takes matters of justice into his own hands, and then seeks the help of his defense attorney friend Jake Brigance when the law attempts to hold him accountable.

Jaws:

- Author name: Peter Benchley
- Date published: 1974

Peter Benchley, a former journalist, penned a simple story about a beach town being terrorized by a great white shark, in an attempt to salvage his floundering career in the early 1970s. Luckily for him, the book was a smashing success and managed to do just that. Thanks to an incredible marketing strategy by his editor Thomas Congdon, “Jaws” remained on The New York Times’ hardback bestseller list for 44 weeks, and was turned into a movie directed by none other than Steven Spielberg.
