Despre această carte electronică
Based on a true story ripped from the headlines, this novel asks the question—is being at the wrong place at the wrong time reason enough to ruin your life?
Twenty-nine-year-old Hope Reed didn’t pull the trigger—but a simple choice landed her behind bars and now she is literally fighting for her life. After her car broke down, Hope accepted a ride from two neighborhood thugs. Later they were pulled over and arrested for a deadly convenience store robbery—and Hope was arrested, too.
Brendon Reed stood by his wife after her arrest. He took out a second mortgage on their house and wiped out the family’s savings for her defense. But as Hope’s case dragged on, he was forced to consider other options.
Hope’s best friend Katina vowed to step in and help out with Hope’s children. But that was when everyone thought Hope would get out of jail and be able to pick up where she left off. Now as years passed and Hope’s chances of acquittal began to look grim, Katina is torn, and the feelings she’s developed for Hope’s husband have thrown her loyalty into question.
Based on true events, this unforgettable novel reveals a broken justice system that can ruin an innocent woman’s life.
