The true story of a death row inmate, awaiting execution, whose case could help kill capital punishment, and his friendship with a journalist who might just make this happen.
Compelling.. Richard Glossip's case stands for everything that is wrong with the death penalty in the United States today. This is a captivating account of his fight for truth. * Sir Richard Branson *
A must read. Ian Woods' work is what objective journalism is all about - telling difficult truths about the barbarism of capital punishment, and telling them brilliantly. * Clive Stafford Smith OBE, Death Penalty campaigner and author of Bad Men *
There's no doubt in my mind that Ian Woods played a part in saving the life of Richard Glossip. This is a revealing insight into American injustice, and a powerful human story too. * Sister Helen Prejean, Author of DEAD MAN WALKING *
