Was it ‘A Time To Kill’, by any chance?

Yep

You may enjoy his Camino Island books. The main protagonist is no lawyer. He's on the other side of the law.

"Being Henry," the memoirs of Henry Winkler was a recent read and very enjoyable.

I reread Slaughterhouse Five on Monday. So it goes.

@BrianSoddingBoru4 Shutter Island is an excellent book!  I will go back to that one after a time to catch more details.  Thank you for the suggestion.

Graham Oppy writes on the philosophy of religion. I'm a bit of a fan. He wrote a good book on ontological arguments in 1995, which I liked, and while hunting down an electronic copy, I discovered that he edited a book of essays on the same subject in 2018. I'm mostly working on familiarizing myself with Hindu literature, specifically the epics, but I may find time to peruse an essay or two as time permits.

Picked up some books from Audible.  They're having a sale, and I had five credits that need to be used up by 7-25.  I though my annual subscription ended this month, so I was going to use up all my credits, but since it isn't, I left a few in reserve.  I'll take any suggestions anybody might have for those last three credits.

I spent credits on George R.R. Martin's A Game of Thrones and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, narrated by Jim Dale.  And Stieg Larsson's The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo was only $10, so I paid cash for that.  It's above the per credit cost on my annual plan, but I won't have that per credit cost for long, so I figured holding back the credit made more sense.

And in the under $5 category I picked up the following:
"Autobiography of a Yogi," by Paramhansa Yogananda;
"The Complete Fiction of H.P. Lovecraft,"
"365 Tales of Indian Mythology,"
"The Vedas and Upanishads for Children,"
"Time and Again," by Clifford D. Simak (an old favorite author)
and, "The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali."

The Martian Revolution - the 21st century was falling into the abyss of global warming, but then humans discovered a new element on Mars that can produce clean energy and they started sending people on Mars to build colonies there and ship the ore. But over time, the Martians didn't want to be under the rule of the Earth, so they revolted.
