John Grisham is no stranger to success, having written 50 consecutive number one best sellers.  

When he’s not writing, he works for the Innocence Project and Centurion Ministries, helping get innocent people released from prison. 

A majority of his work are legal thrillers, but this time he’s taking a step into a realm he’s less familiar with: nonfiction. 

‘Framed’ is Grisham’s second nonfiction book, detailing the true accounts of ten people who were wrongfully convicted. 

He told Mike Hosking that he and Centurion Ministries founder Jim McCloskey have been considering writing this book for a number of years. 

“The stories are so, they’re so terrible, but they’re also very compelling, and really gripping stories.” 

Grisham says that he’s trying to make a change with this novel, and raise awareness for the issues within the criminal justice system in the United States. 

“Trying to raise awareness, trying to raise a few bucks for the innocents, for advocates in the country,” he said. 

“There’s a purpose behind it.”
