The Guardians

Product Description

22 years ago Quincy Miller was sentenced to life without parole. He was accused of killing Keith Russo, a lawyer in a small Florida town.

But there were no reliable witnesses & little motive. Just the fact that Russo had botched Quincy's divorce case, that Quincy was black in a largely all-white town & that a blood-splattered torch was found in the boot of Quincy's car.

A torch he swore was planted. A torch that was conveniently destroyed in a fire just before his trial.

The lack of evidence made no difference to judge or jury. In the eyes of the law Quincy was guilty &, no matter how often he protested his innocence, his punishment was life in prison.

Finally, after 22 years, comes Quincy's one & only chance of freedom. An innocence lawyer & minister, Cullen Post, takes on his case. Post has exonerated eight men in the last ten years. He intends to make Quincy the next.

But there were powerful & ruthless people behind Russo's murder. They prefer that an innocent man dies in jail rather than one of them.

There's one way to guarantee that. They killed one lawyer 22 years ago, & they'll kill another without a second thought.
