Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Hace veintidós años mataron a un abogado. Lo volverán a hacer sin pensarlo dos veces.> Quincy fue juzgado, arrestado, y condenado a prisión de por vida. Durante veintidós años, Quincy languideció en prisión, manteniendo su inocencia. Pero nadie lo escuchaba. No tenia abogados, ni nadie que lo defendiera. En su desesperación, Quincy escribió una carta a Los Ministros Guardianes, una pequeña empresa de caridad dirigía por Cullen Post, un abogado que a su vez es un ministro episcopal.

Los Guardianes aceptan pocos casos inocentes. Cullen Post viaja por todo el país luchando por anular convicciones erróneas, y toma a los clientes a los que el sistema ha olvidado. Sin embargo, el caso de Quincy Miller será particularmente difícil. Los asesinos de Keith Russo son poderosos y crueles, y harán lo que sea para evitar que Quincy Miller sea exonerado.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

- #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -

They killed one lawyer twenty-two years ago, and they will kill another without a second thought.

In the small Florida town of Seabrook, a young lawyer named Keith Russo was shot dead at his desk as he worked late one night. The killer left no clues. There were no witnesses, no one with a motive. But the police soon came to suspect Quincy Miller, a young black man who was once a client of Russo's.

Quincy was tried, convicted, and sent to prison for life. For twenty-two years he languished in prison, maintaining his innocence. But no one was listening. He had no lawyer, no advocate on the outside. In desperation, he writes a letter to Guardian Ministries, a small nonprofit run by Cullen Post, a lawyer who is also an Episcopal minister.

Guardian accepts only a few innocence cases at a time. Cullen Post travels the country fighting wrongful convictions and taking on clients forgotten by the system. With Quincy Miller, though, he gets far more than he bargained for. Powerful, ruthless people murdered Keith Russo, and they do not want Quincy Miller exonerated.
