I promised myself to read other authors this year, rather than just my favorites.
David R. Dow was an author I'd never heard of, and I decided to read this book after reading a review of another PBS member.
It was mind-boggling and eye-opening. A heart-breaking story, even though supposed fiction. Suspenseful, and also frustrating. Makes you wonder how many are unjustly accused, and how other perpetrators get away with crime and are never caught.
The author has delivered a well-written story involving capital punishment, with thought-provoking chapters that keep the intrigue and injustice on going.
If you just want entertainment, then this book is not for you. It's a devastating read, but you will stay interested in turning the page.
