Copies of Presumed Guilty will be available for purchase on site, courtesy of Booked, an independent bookstore in Evanston.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you to our Community Partners, including Booked and the City of Evanston, for their help in promoting this event. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ About the book In a sequel to Presumed Innocent, the book that redefined the legal thriller and served as the basis for Apple TV+’s most-watched drama series ever, judge and lawyer Rusty Sabich returns to the courtroom to defend his step-son against a murder indictment as the boy’s life—and perhaps Rusty’s last chance at happiness—hang in the balance. Rusty is a retired judge attempting a third act in life with a loving soon-to-be wife. But the peace that’s taken Rusty so long to find evaporates when Bea’s young adult son, Aaron, living under their supervision while on probation for drug possession, disappears. Aaron eventually turns up with a vague story about a camping trip with his troubled girlfriend, Mae. Days later, when she still hasn’t returned, suspicion falls on Aaron, and when Mae is subsequently discovered dead, Aaron is arrested and set for trial on charges of first-degree murder. Bea begs Rusty to return to court one last time, to defend her son. For Rusty, the question is not whether to defend Aaron, or whether the boy is in fact innocent—it’s whether the system to which he has devoted his life can ever provide true justice for those who are presumed guilty. “The trial that follows is a master class in legal suspense as Turow weaves together the devastation of Aaron and Bea’s families, simmering racial prejudice, and the impact of smalltown politics within a framework of deliciously tense courtroom dynamics. This is manna for legal-thriller fans.  — Booklist, Starred Review “Turow keeps readers guessing... This easily ranks among Turow’s best. — Publisher’s Weekly, Starred Review “No one stages courtroom scenes better than this celebrated Chicago attorney.

芝加哥最值得去的景點，做好功課可以逛很久梵高，修拉，莫奈，雷諾阿，高更，還有中國館的一些青銅器與藝術，歷史近距離接觸，非常滿足和充實

值得去，但是價格有點高，感覺性價比不太高。裏面有一個斜的窗戶可以斜向下看市區，但是要單獨收費。總體感覺性價比不高。
