A gripping tale of deceit, murder, and a sensational trial, Anatomy of a Murder is a classic courtroom drama that has captivated readers for generations.
First published by St. Martin's in 1958, Robert Traver's Anatomy of a Murder immediately became the number-one bestseller in America, and was subsequently turned into the now classic Otto Preminger film of the same name, starring Jimmy Stewart and Duke Ellington.
Unmatched in the authenticity of its settings, events, and characters, this legal thriller is not only the most popular courtroom drama in American fiction, but one of the most popular novels of our time. With its suspenseful cross-examinations and legal chicanery, Anatomy of a Murder keeps readers on the edge of their seats as they follow a gripping tale of murder and mystery.
This new edition should delight both loyal fans of the past and an entire new generation of readers. As Tangled Web notes, "The characters are as fresh as when they were first created, the tension high, and the cross-examinations and legal chicanery full of suspense. The novel is simply what it says on the cover. A classic."
