I have been a fan of John Grisham’s writing for many years (loved The Street Lawyer!). Our book club chose this book as our January read and I was excited as this is Grisham’s first non fiction book.
Based on the true life story of Ron Williamson from Ada, Oklahoma, Grisham tells of his walk in the big league as the up and coming Mickey Mantle to his fall into being accused of a crime he did not commit.
Grisham handles accurate details as he shares the years that Williamson is in prison, the accommodation’s and his fight for justice as the true killer walks free due to police errors.
True to Grishams style, the book holds you to the end as you hope beyond hope for a miracle… a miracle that comes too late.
