California P.I.

Marquis is accused of involvement in the murder of a man from a rival neighborhood. Darren has been found guilty of murdering a gas station attendant. Charles has been charged with the murder of a homeless teenage girl. All three men are facing the death penalty in California. A passionate account, this book follows an Australian-born private investigator as she attempts to save the lives of these men. A journey from genteel, middle-class Adelaide, Australia, to the ghettos and prisons of the United States, this is also an insider's view of the U.S. justice system and the injustices it often commits.
