description: What do you pack for your husband when he's leaving home handcuffed to two policemen, charged with the murder of his mistress? How can you kiss him goodbye through the meshed wire of the prison grille when the verdict has been guilty and the sentence, death?What do you do when you know—not just believe but really know—that he didn't do it—as his lawyer looks at you with professional regret, the authorities with weary contempt, and your friends with embarrassed pity?Do you settle for drugged despair? Or set out with fevered determination in a race against time to find the real killer?
