Fascinating and sad
Revisado: 07-21-20
The themes are missionary work and polygamy. The missionary success seems remarkable considering all the problems faced by members. Polygamy would have served a purpose and certainly has biblical precedent but became a huge problem as the US government heaped increasing sanctions against its participants. Ironically, a man can now marry another man. The book well portrays the array of personal pains resulting from the abrupt end to polygamy.

An innocent man is about to be executed. Only a guilty man can save him. Travis Boyette is such a man. In 1998, in the small East Texas city of Sloan, he abducted, raped, and strangled a popular high-school cheerleader. He buried her body so that it would never be found, then watched in amazement as police and prosecutors arrested and convicted Donté Drumm, a local football star, and marched him off to death row.

Goodbye Mr. Grisham

On one hand the writing is spellbinding and I came to care about the characters. One the other hand we have here a liberal white-hating race baiter narrating a trite and absurd caricature of southern justice. No plans to buy another Grisham book.
