How much would a father sacrifice for his child?
Nineteen years ago, Indiana police found the body of a young girl, burned
beyond recognition and buried in the woods. They arrested George Calhoun for
murdering his daughter, and his wife testified against him at the trial. The
jury convicted him. Now his appeals have been exhausted, and his execution is
just a few weeks away.
George said he didn't do it. That the body isn't his little Angelina. But
that's all he's ever said - no other defense, no other explanation.
Dani Trumball, an attorney for the Help Innocent Prisoners Project, wants to
believe him. After all, there was no forensic evidence that the body in the
woods was George's daughter. But if the girl isn't Angelina, then who is it?
And what happened to the Calhouns' missing daughter?
For nineteen years, George Calhoun has stayed silent. But that's about to
change, and the story he tells Dani - if it's true - changes everything.

my comments.
the quotes at the beginning and at the end of the description are so true. All
I can say about this book was truly amazing. I was hooked from start to finish.
Although I had a little bit of it figured out quite early on it did not take
away the excitement of the book. This was suspenseful and fast pace. I was on
tenter hooks as the execution got closer. I recommend this author highly and
will be starting the second book presumed guilty this evening. this was one of
the best books i’ve read for a long time and kept me reeled in till the end. I
got this book from iTunes.
5 out of 5.
