By all accounts, Jovan Mosley was a good kid. He was working on a way out of his tough Chicago neighbourhood when he was forced to confess to a murder he did not commit. He then spent five years and ten months in jail without a trial. His efforts to exonerate himself got him nowhere until he happened to meet a successful criminal defense lawyer, Catharine O'Daniel. This affecting memoir tells the unforgettable story of a breakdown in the criminal justice system and what it took to free an innocent man.
