Forgiving the Dead Man Walking by Debbie Morris
A true account by a survivor of the crimes committed by the rapist and killer made famous in the movie Dead Man Walking. Debbie Morris takes readers beyond the story of those crimes and into her journey of faith as she wrestles with the question all of us face at some point in life: Is there any crime, any hurt, any person beyond forgiveness?
'As Morris calmly describes the horrible ordeal that inspired her beliefs, what emerges is the profile of a woman who is Sister Helen Prejean's equal in strength and virtue' * Daily Variety *
'Debbie Morris' recollection of her nightmarish ordeal is chilling. But even more memorable is her description of the emotional and spiritual journey she's taken in the 15 years since.' * New Orleans Times-Picayune *
'You won't find Debbie Morris in the film 'Dead Man Walking,' but she is one of the integral characters in the true story behind the movie.' * Philadelphia City Paper *
