A stunning, intricate courtroom battle lasting years. Really picks up the pace about a third of the way through.

"Here, Spence recounts in chilling detail the case against a poor mother and her son, both accused of murder in Oregon...Spence agrees to join the defense team pro bono...

A true maverick, Spence is someone you'd want on your side." amazon review
