From PUBLISHERS WEEKLY: "Probably the most famous crime in Georgia history was the 1973 cold-blooded slaughter of six members of the religious, law-abiding Alday farm family by four drifters from Baltimore: brothers Billy and Carl Isaacs, their half-brother Wayne Coleman and friend George Dungee. Forensic evidence and confessions left no doubt of the killers' guilt; the youngest, Billy Isaacs, turned state's evidence and the other three were sentenced to death. Then the appeals process took over and, after 12 years, the death penalty convictions were overturned. In later trials Carl was resentenced to die and is now on death row awaiting further appeals. In the meantime the surviving Alday women (five of the victims were men) were unable to carry on the work of the farm, and the land passed to outsiders. The trials, hearings and appeals have cost an impoverished rural county and the state hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of dollars. Psychologically the survivors have never recovered. With this scorching indictment of the legal and court systems, Cook (Early Graves ) portrays a case in which justice was both delayed and denied. He is most persuasive." From the Dust Jacket: "This is the fascinating true-crime account of the most shocking mass murder in Georgia history. It was spring of 1973 when the two Isaacs brothers escaped from a Maryland prison with a friend who was all too willing to follow their conscienceless whims. Joined by a third brother, the deadly gang headed south on a thrill-seeking crime spree that led to rural Georgia - and the close-knit, hardworking Alday family. Thus the stage was set for an orgy of cold-blooded, grisly violence. As an electrically riveting courtroom drama, and as a chilling illumination of our flawed justice system. BLOOD ECHOES is a gripping, haunting, terrifying true story." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/Fine dust jacket.
