| Resumen: |
Summary : Is a novel about redemption. Sam Cayhall is involved in a bombing and, after being convicted by a jury, lives in Parchman Prison awaiting his execution. Set in contemporary Mississippi with flashbacks to the 1960s, the story revolves around Adam Hall, a rising 26-year-old lawyer destined for a brilliant legal career at Chicago’s top law firm. However, Adam decides to risk his career and reputation to defend death-row inmate Sam Cayhall, a white supremacist and former Klansman convicted of a deadly bombing in 1967 Mississippi. Sam also happens to be Adam’s own estranged grandfather. As Adam agrees to take the case only 28 days before Sam’s execution, he must race the clock to save his grandfather from the gas chamber, uncovering tragic family secrets along the way.
