Robert Justice
"Riveting! A gripping tale of wrongful incarceration and the lengths someone goes when the promise of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is unjustly ripped away. Robert's compelling prose and characters make this narrative all too realistic and will linger long after reading. A phenomenal debut by a crime novelist to follow."
