NATIONAL BESTSELLER • INSPIRATION FOR THE MGM+ ORIGINAL SERIES • ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S 100 BEST MYSTERY AND THRILLER BOOKS OF ALL TIME • In his triumphant fictional debut, Stephen Carter combines a large-scale, riveting novel of suspense with the saga of a unique family. The Emperor of Ocean Park is set in two privileged worlds: the upper crust African American society of the Eastern seabord—families who summer at Martha’s Vineyard—and the inner circle of an Ivy League law school. “Beautifully written and cleverly plotted. A rich, complex family saga, one deftly woven through a fine legal thriller.” —John Grisham Talcott Garland is a successful law professor, devoted father, and husband of a beautiful and ambitious woman, whose future desires may threaten the family he holds so dear. When Talcott’s father, Judge Oliver Garland, a disgraced former Supreme Court nominee, is found dead under suspicioius circumstances, Talcott wonders if he may have been murdered. Guided by the elements of a mysterious puzzle that his father left, Talcott must risk his marriage, his career and even his life in his quest for justice. Superbly written and filled with memorable characters, The Emperor of Ocean Park is both a stunning literary achievement and a grand literary entertainment.

Olivier Garland, famoso juez afroamericano de talante conservador, ha muerto repentinamente de un supuesto ataque de corazón. Antes de fallecer, el poderoso juez había protagonizado un escándalo público que arruinó su ascendente trayectoria profesional hacia el tribunal Supremo, lo que le procuró importantes enemigos y le sumió en una crisis de la que nunca se recuperaría. Ahora, su hijo Talcott, profesor de derecho en una prestigiosa universidad, tendrá que dar respuesta a una serie de preguntas que apuntan hacia un escándalo mayor: ¿fue el juez Garland asesinado? ¿Qué misterio esconden las "disposiciones" que el juez dejó escritas en vida y que todo el mundo parece querer encontrar? Las sucesivas muertes de personas que, de un modo u otro, estuvieron relacionadas con el entorno familiar servirán de pista a Talcott para adentrarse en una aventura en la que pondrá en juego su carrera, su matrimonio y su propia vida.
