Monday contest: double the Scott Turow

Posted on 26 April 2010 by Eliza, Associate Editor

We’ve been teasing you about Scott Turow‘s sequel to mega-hit Presumed Innocent for a few months now. . . and the wait is almost over.

Innocent hits shelves on May 4, and BookPage reviewer Dennis Lythgoe was wowed: “The court scenes are riveting, subject to legal twists that keep the reader in constant doubt as to the verdict. Forget the no-sequels rule: Turow is better than ever.”

Since we love a good sequel—especially one that lives up to the original book—this week we’re giving away not only Innocent, but a paperback copy of Presumed Innocent, too. To enter to win, read our Q&A with the author and answer this question in the comments section: In addition to being a novelist, Turow has another gig. What is it? Deadline: Friday, April 30.
