Pleading Guilty (1993), is Scott Turow's third novel, and like the previous two it is set in fictional Kindle County.[1] The story is a legal thriller about Mack Malloy, a middle-aged lawyer basically waiting to retire, who is assigned by his firm to track down another attorney who has embezzled millions from the firm and disappeared.
Many of the minor characters in Pleading Guilty also appear in Turow's other novels.
A pilot for a television show based on Pleading Guilty was shot in 2010 but not picked up by the FOX network.
