Edges of Truth by Steve Brennecke
Mary Weaver tries to save the life of 11-month-old Melissa Mathes, but the baby dies after being in Mary's care. The autopsy reveals severe head injuries that were inflicted 7 to 10 days before the baby's death, but Mary is accused of first-degree murder. Steve Brennecke, a young lawyer and a friend of Mary's, takes the case. He is convinced of Mary's innocence and sets out to clear Mary's name and keep this young mother out of prison. Mary's case splits the medical community. One group of doctors, eager to stamp out child abuse, insists the baby had to be shaken and slammed during the time Mary was alone with her. Another group believes scientific evidence points away from Mary. The jury doesn't know what to think. Dr. Ruth Ramsey calls this true story a frightening wake-up call for anyone who is ever involved in childcare. Edges of Truth is an account of justice gone wrong, the fight to clear an innocent woman's name, and the community who supported her. Edges of Truth deals with the question: Where is God when life ceases to make sense? For more about this question, see the companion Bible study book, I Survived| SKU | Unavailable |
