Críticas:
"The Christa Worthington murder case on [old] Cape Cod is an unusually captivating story, and Peter Manso has expertly plumbed the depths of it to write a riveting book that true crime fans will love." --Vincent Bugliosi, New York Times bestselling author of HELTER SKELTER and Outrage

"Only the fearless and risk-taking Peter Manso--capitalizing on his unique familiarity with the culture of the Cape and its denizens, including the victim of this horrible killing--could have written this powerful expose of prosecutorial corruption and the conviction of a possibly innocent victim of racial stereotyping. It will shock, enrage and educate you." --Alan Dershowitz, New York Times bestselling author of The Trials of Zion

"Manso is a fearless enemy of hyprocrisy, a great investigative reporter. Power brokers and officials who feed off their own inflated sense of self-importance have no greater foe. If every community in America had a Peter Manso there'd be no place for the bad guys to hide." --Morton Dean, former anchor, CBS Nightly News

"This is the dark side of the Cape that whispers in bad dreams, screams down the alley ... and hides out of sight on sunny days when tourists wonder the quaint old streets or lie on the sand in bliss." --Jeremy Larner, Academy Award winner for Best Original Screenplay for The Candidate

"Sex, courtroom drama, racism, social class, justice denied, a police procedural entwined in an exciting, well-written, true story. Don't start reading in the evening unless you're up for a sleepless night." --Nicholas Von Hoffman, columnist, New York Observer, and author of Radical: A Portrait of Saul Alinsky

"Peter Manso's account of the police and prosecutorial misconduct occurring in one case represents widespread practices that send thousands of black, Hispanic, Native American and poor whites to American prisons each day. His investigation...invited retaliation from a system that often treats its critics in the same way it treats its victims." --Ishmael Reed, author of Juice


"A keen observer and a talented writer...some of the courtroom scenes are riveting. Manso should be commended for taking up the cause of a long-forgotten man, whose trial raised serious questions about the strength of the State Police's case and the fairness of the trial...An important [book] for anyone who cares about the criminal justice system." --Boston Globe
Reseña del editor:
Chronicles the 2002 murder of Christa Worthington and the ensuing trial and conviction of African-American trash collector Christopher McCowen, revealing the conflicting testimony, crime-scene contamination and police misconduct that have caused many to believe that McCowen is innocent.
