“Immensely compelling. ... If it were fiction, no one would believe it. Kerry Cook’s account of his nightmare is fascinating." –John Grisham“Cook’s story is so gripping that only a heart of steel won’t break after reading it." –PeopleAn Edgar Award Finalist - Best Fact Crime Book | A Dallas Morning News BestsellerThe harrowing, inspiring, and beautifully written story of a man wrongly sent to death row for two decades by the state of Texas. In 1977, at age 19, Kerry Max Cook was arrested and wrongly convicted of the capital murder of a young woman in Tyler, Texas. On death row, when Cook wasn’t struggling to survive amid vicious inmates and inhumane conditions, he was fighting a justice system determined to muzzle him and loath to admit their horrendous mistake. Through his perseverance and the hard work of a team of crusading lawyers, his death sentence was reversed-11 days before his planned execution in late 1996. Here is Cook’s story, in his own heartbreaking and moving words. Sure to spark debate about the American judicial system and the death penalty, Chasing Justice is an inspiration to anyone who has struggled to master the hand life has dealt. | Chasing Justice by Kerry Max Cook, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
