Synopsis Capital punishment is the morally complex topic of this legal thriller by bestselling author Richard North Patterson. Fifteen years ago, Rennell Price and his drug-dealer brother Payton were convicted of raping and murdering a nine-year-old girl. In 59 days, he will face the final penalty for that crime and die by legal injection. Lawyer Terri Paget believes that Rennell is both retarded and innocent, but proving these claims still may not save her client. Will she be able to successfully negotiate the labyrinthine legal processes required in time to stop the execution?
