From the back cover:
Fort Bragg, North Carolina, had seen it all before - when Dr. Jeffrey MacDonald was convicted of savagely slaying his wife and children. Now another officer's wife had been raped and murdered, another pair of children viciously butchered. And another member of the military was brought to trial. This time the state had no trouble winning a conviction. Tim Hennis was found guilty and sentenced to death.
Only Hennis's parents, wife, and dedicated defense team refused to give up. Piece by piece they ripped the state's case to shreds, revealing a stunning story of perversion of justice, false witnesses, hidden evidence and, incredibly, a baby-sitter who had a fascination with Dr. Jeffrey MacDonald.

A shocking story of a brutal crime and an innocent man accused. This story remains unsolved but the sorrowing husband and father is free.

To think that an innocent man could be sentenced to Death Row merely on circumstantial evidence is apalling to me! It also concerns me that at the time of publishing the true killer had not been brought to justice. In fact, he might have still been on his killing spree! To think of what some human beings are capable of is truly a frightening realization! I had trouble sleeping after reading this book.
