Chasing Justice: My Story of Freeing Myself After Two Decades on Death Row for a Crime I Didn't Commit - Rilegato
America's longest-tenured death-row inmate to be freed after wrongful conviction describes the police and prosecutorial misconduct that led to his conviction for the 1977 murder of a young woman, his brutal experience behind bars before his 1999 DNA exoneration, and his subsequent work as an advocate for legal reform.

Recensione:
“Chasing Justice is an immensely compelling story that is hard to believe. If it were fiction, no one would believe it. But it’s not, and Kerry Cook’s account of his nightmare is fascinating.” (John Grisham)
“Chasing Justice is captivating...It is going to break through political barriers and be a catalyst for reform. (Sister Helen Prejean, author of Dead Man Walking)
“The incredible story of this enforced visit to hell and back is a modern day version of Dante and Kafka.” (Alan Dershowitz, Harvard Law School)
“I dare you to read this book. . . An inspiring human being.” (Richard Dreyfuss)
“A brutal but compelling account. . . . Amazing.” (William S. Sessions, former FBI Director and federal judge)
“Deserves a wide readership alongside John Grisham’s The Innocent Man. (Publishers Weekly)
“An inmate’s harrowing first-person account of a travesty of Texas jurisprudence.” (Kirkus Reviews)
“Kafka-esque...That he survived is astounding; the circumstances that finally freed him...are nearly miraculous.” (Texas Monthly)
“Cook’s story is so gripping that only a heart of steel won’t break after reading it.” (People)

Kerry Max Cook was born in Stuttgart, Germany, and spent much of his youth on army bases in Europe. In 1972, he and his family returned to the United States to live in Texas. Since gaining his freedom, Cook has been an outspoken advocate for legal reform. He has made numerous national and international media appearances and has lectured at Princeton, Yale, and the University of Chicago. His story was incorporated into the acclaimed play The Exonerated, of which he is often a cast member. He was awarded a Soros Justice Fellowship to write Chasing Justice.
