'In 1970 Howard Stamp, a retarded twenty-year-old, was convicted on disputed evidence of brutally murdering his grandmother in her Dorset home. Less than three years later he was dead, driven to suicide by self-hatred and relentless bullying by other prisoners.
When anthropologist Dr Jonathan Hughes re-examines Stamp's case for a book on injustice, his research into the written evidence leads him to believe that Stamp was wrongly convicted. But is the forgotten story of one friendless young man compelling enough to persuade Jonathan to confront the real murderer?
One person believes it is. George Gardener has been trying to bring Stamp's case to public attention for years and has unearthed new evidence that might exonerate him. But Gardener needs Jonathan on board if it is to be used to maximum effect...
...and Jonathan is too consumed by his own demons to expose a dangerous killer who may still be at large...'

Sent out today as part of a relay. Enjoy!

Thanks for sending! I hope this is a good one, I really like Minette Walters.

I am making this title available since I am giving up Minette Walters. Thanks for sharing it with me spiderchic, but turns out her writing isn't my cup of tea after all! I'll continue to pass it on.

SO delighted to get this book, I have become a real fan of Walters.

Love Walters. Even though this book kind of petered out at the very end, it kept me going throughout. Giving to my sister in Germany this summer.

Caught from Schwester at SF-2013.
