In 1992, a Boston policewoman is attacked and left for dead. But she survives and fingers Vincente Salazar, an El Salvadoran immigrant, as the perp. He is quickly arrested and just as quickly convicted. In 2007, Scott Finn, a private-practice attorney, is approached by a representative of the Innocence Project, a group dedicated to freeing people who were wrongly convicted. Salazar is innocent, the man tells Finn, and not only that, the evidence--some of which was suppressed by police in 1992--points to a conspiracy involving the very people who put the El Salvadoran away. Finn must risk his career, not to mention his life, to see that justice is done. While it doesn't break much new ground, this gripping legal thriller (more in the vein of Phillip Margolin than John Grisham) will be a hit with genre fans across the board, as well as people who recall the recent excellent-but-cancelled ABC crime drama, In Justice.
