Review
The story is so gripping that I literally could not put the book down. (Jonathan Kirsch Los Angeles Times)
The authors are to be commended for this calm, dispassionate, yet chilling story of how bigotry can kill a man and destroy a system of justice.... Must reading! (Abraham H. Foxman, National Director, Anti-Defamation League)
