The Guardians by John Grisham

3.0

Enjoyed this latest read by Grisham. It was a little bit light on the suspense but I was impressed by the story and it has a very sobering message; namely that a proportion of those incarcerated in America (and elsewhere) are in fact innocent. I think that is a message that needs more attention. The book is based on the real-life case of Joe Bryan, an individual who was incarcerated in Texas for over thirty years and the innocence minister Jim McCloskey, who worked to innocent people released from a broken system.
