Description
For an ex-con, no prison visit is routine. When the gate in the perimeter fence slams shut behind Nora Dockson, her gut churns.
She hates the concertina wire topping the chainlinks. The black-uniformed guard eyeing her suspiciously. The petty rules dictating when and where she can stand. Sit. Breathe.
But Nora pulled herself out of the gutter and became an appeals lawyer. Her clients are behind bars and that's where she meets them.
She's fighting to free two men, each sentenced to life in prison for a murder he didn't commit. She backtracks through their cases, searching for clues to the real killers.
But a key eyewitness, jailed as an accessory to one murder, claims she's "blocking" critical crime scene memories. A prosecutor "doesn't remember" to give Nora crucial information. An interrogator "forgets" what he said to suspects after he turned the recorder off. Incompetent lab techs in two states misread, contaminate, and destroy critical evidence.
The criminal justice system lets them lie.
Struggling to make a broken system free the innocent, she forces herself to go back inside. Discovers how to untangle the web of deception. Prepares her attack.
Then, her past roars into her present.
And Nora faces a tougher challenge: Can she dodge the Devil this time?
