Publisher's summary

Seth’s show Seth Row has made his name a household word with his weekly radio, internet, and TV specials interviewing inmates on death row before their executions. Seth is often the last person to really speak with the inmates before they exit this world and the women in his life articulate that hanging out near the abyss of death rubs off on him and ghosts of his interviewees may follow him home. Could be possible, he supposed.

Seth doesn’t focus on the heinous acts that placed these corrupted humans on death row, but their backstories. The men behind the crimes…their life, loves, interests, regrets, beliefs about life after death. He humanizes the villains. Not in an attempt to exonerate or give them fame, but to pull back the outer layer and see what makes them tick. His favorite stories were always those where each character is multifaceted…the heroes not always all good and the antagonists not all bad. Mankind is constantly battling the natural-man inside themselves and Seth believes there is good and bad in every person. It just depends on the wolf they decide to feed. He is the consummate professional interviewer, until he meets the most unlikely death row inmate and things become a bit more personal for him.

Each chapter opens with interesting, true facts about death row (but no political stance is taken). The story is filled with colorful inmates, varied love interests, a long-lost father who turns out to be an actual Father, and a young philosophical death row inmate that ends up connected to Seth on another level. Seth ultimately has to decide if he can host the live execution of someone he cares about and believes is innocent.

A beautiful blend of character and story!

This book is a must read (or listen in this case)! The author does a fantastic job of developing the main character, Seth Hoeffer, while telling his complex story. Seth's story draws you in, as his career is centered around the complex topic of capital punishment, and how this profession impacts life. The book does an outstanding job of weaving history facts on the subject matter to add background and intrigue to Seth's profession and story. The narrator brings the characters to life and let's you get lost in this story for the ages. ENJOY!!

A witty and thoughtful story

This story treats a topic that often elicits strong partisan emotions in a non-judgemental and non-political way. It’s a charming tale that would be enjoyed by millennials and boomers alike. I could easily have listened to it in one sitting!
Kudos to the author and to the narrator (who together gave credible life to each character)!
