About this book
Former major league prospect Ron Williamson returns to his small Oklahoma hometown, only to become the prime suspect in a local woman's murder. This true crime narrative exposes the web of false confessions, jailhouse informants, and prosecutorial misconduct that condemned Williamson to death row. After years on death row, DNA evidence and a determined lawyer finally proved he was innocent all along.
