The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town

Front Cover
Century, 2006 - Biography & Autobiography - 360 pages
Dette er en biografi som beskriver en kriminalsak i en småby i USA, og som vil sjokkere de som tror på et rettferdig rettssystem og et samfunn der man er uskyldig inntil det motsatte er bevist. I 1982 ble en 21 år gammel servitrise funnet voldtatt og drept. Uten at det noen gang er blitt gitt noen egentlig begrunnelse ble Ron Williamson og vennen Dennis Fritx mistenkt. Dette er John Grishams første non-fiction.
