A gripping story of how the gallows took a man’s life, destroyed that of the barrister who defended him, and threatens a new generation. As the prisoner felt the hangman’s fingers position the noose tightly beneath his left jaw, he screamed to some obscure deity to save him, before vomiting into the cloying white linen of the hood encasing his head. Men with cold hearts and dead eyes buried him in an unmarked grave inside the prison walls. Even his spirit in eternity was incarcerated unless the truth was ever allowed to set him free. The steely determination of the barrister’s beautiful daughter leads her from rural Somerset to the South Pacific, where she meets a dark, brooding Australian whose history holds a secret so dreadful that not even he knows what it is. Together they take on the English Establishment and seek to expose truths that Judges and the Ruling Classes have kept buried for over a quarter of a century. As they battle, they start to realize that history just might repeat itself. A brutal courtroom drama which will decide whether justice can ever be found at the end of a rope. David Crigman’s fourth fast-moving and chilling legal thriller takes the reader into sinister corners where others choose not to tread.
