The Fortune Men by Nadifa Mohamed

4.0

An interesting read. The prose was a little irritating at times but the dialogue saved it. The real horror of the story comes in knowing that this is not the only miscarriage of justice that can never be truly rectified as an innocent man was hanged. You cannot help but be moved by the plight of Mahmood and his young family. The back story was alsi interesting, turning "a case" into the story of a human being. I only knocked a star off for the clunky writing style.
