Overview

Thomas Dennehy, senior prosecutor in Davidson County, Tennessee, doesn't recognize Nashville anymore: a decade of relentless immigration means cops are learning Spanish, and the DA's office is looking for Vietnamese translators. Thomas's latest case is prosecuting Moses Bol, a Sudanese refugee who faces the death penalty for killing a white woman in the Nations, a notorious, racially charged part of town. Bol's conviction seems certain, until a university professor claims Thomas sent the wrong man to the death chamber in a previous case. The DA's office is rocked to its core, but within days another blow falls: a beautiful and brilliant anti-death penalty activist mysteriously surfaces as Bol's alibi, claiming she was with him at the time of the crime. Bol's case becomes a lightning rod as protesters on all sides converge on Nashville and tensions threaten to explode.

Will Dennehy be able to piece things together before everything he believes about the law, and about justice, are torn apart?

Short, easy, and unmemorable

  • Book Rating: 3/5

This is a pretty good read - not too long, and the story moves nicely. However, it's not very remarkable, and I barely remember the plot only shortly after listening to it. Mind candy, good to have something interesting to listen to during your commute, but not ultimately satisfying.
