This is a great Grisham classic, written when he was still including the Gospel into his stories. This story is of a grandfather on death row, a grandson who doesn't know the old man but decides to help him (as a young lawyer). Their relationship develops slowly, the old man decides to make his life right with God & his grandson. The lessons on the prison system & esp. death row are at time shocking but true. The story of what God does between a grandfather & his grandson is very moving. It's worth rereading if it's been a few years since you've read it; at least it was for me.
