In Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal partner Scott Turow's 10th book, "Limitations," the lawyer-author has cast an appeals court judge as the main character who is haunted by an incident in college, which Turow says is based on an actual event during his own Amherst College days. For Turow, showing the seamier side of the legal profession is what comes naturally to him, coming from a large firm where he chastises the billable hour and calls associates "high-paid slaves."

The first pages of “Limitations,” the 10th book by lawyer-author Scott Turow, give a glimpse of what a judge may think during oral argument.
Turow’s George Mason, a judge on an intermediate appeals court hearing a high-profile rape case, has a lot on his mind. His wife has cancer, he’s received menacing e-mails from a mysterious stalker and he is growing tired of a colleague whose goal always seems to be “proving he is the smartest lawyer in the room.”
