But on his way to the Big Leagues, Ron stumbled, his dreams broken by drinking, drugs, and women. Then, on a winter night in 1982, not far from Ron's home, a young cocktail waitress named Debra Sue Carter was savagely murdered. The investigation led nowhere. Until, on the flimsiest evidence, it led to Ron Williamson. The washed-up small-town hero was charged, tried, and sentenced to death--in a trial littered with lying witnesses and tainted evidence that would shatter a man's already broken life, and let a true killer go free. <p/>Impeccably researched, grippingly told, filled with eleventh-hour drama, <i>The Innocent Man</i> reads like a page-turning legal thriller. It is a book no American can afford to miss. <p/><b>Praise for <i>The Innocent Man</i></b> <p/>"Grisham has crafted a legal thriller every bit as suspenseful and fast-paced as his bestselling fiction."<b>--<i>The</i> <i>Boston Globe</i></b> <p/>"A gritty, harrowing true-crime story."<b>--<i>Time</i></b><br><i> </i><br>"A triumph."<b><i>--The Seattle Times</i></b> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "A gritty, harrowing true-crime story." --<i>Time<br></i><br>"A triumph." --<i>Seattle Times</i> <p/>"Grisham has crafted a legal thriller every bit as suspenseful and fast-paced as his best-selling fiction." --<i>Boston Globe</i> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> Since first publishing <b>A Time to Kill</b> in 1988, Grisham has written one novel a year (his other books are <b>The Firm, The Pelican Brief, The Client, The Chamber, The Rainmaker, The Runaway Jury, The Partner, The Street Lawyer, The Testament, The Brethren, A Painted House, Skipping Christmas, The Summons, The King of Torts, Bleachers, The Last Juror</b>, and <b>The Broker</b>) and all of them have become international bestsellers. <b>The Innocent Man</b> (October 2006) marks his first foray into non-fiction. <p/>Grisham lives with his wife Renee and their two children Ty and Shea.
