There's good reason why Joann Fields and her husband are not well-liked by the people of Danton, the small mid-west town in which they live, That's why when Joann wakes up next to her dead husband, the town is only too happy to prosecute her for his murder. Joann requests a court-appointed lawyer and Mike Carroll, a newspaper reporter and only person in town she trusts, to help her through her interrogation. After her trial, she's found guilty and is sentenced to life in prison or death by legal injection. Did she really kill her husband or was someone else responsible, and what role did Mike Carroll play in the affair? You'll be surprised at the twist that opens the door for the next installment of this planned series of short novels. K. A. Meng does a superb job of creating suspense in this very imaginative tale.
