I do not remember EVER being as glued to a book as I was to this one.  The locale is New Orleans; the event is the execution of condemned killer Larry Durrant.  The challenge is to prove him innocent ... or is he guilty ... or is he innocent ... or ...Are the twists and turns overkill?  Not once did I think so.  I had to re-read the first 30 pages, thinking I'd missed points.  Nada!  The backstory was intricately interwoven throughout.  John Matthews is a MASTER story teller.  It is a complex story with many characters - if you're not in to that, this book is not for you.For all of you who venture into the corridors of the Libreville Prison ... happy reading!
