FALSE CONVICTIONS by Tim Green

Casey Jordan is counting on an open-and-shut case, a sure success for her first effort with the Freedom Project, the renowned charity group dedicated to helping exonerate wrongfully convicted prisoners. Not only is the Freedom Project giving Casey the chance to help innocent people, but its founder, Robert Graham, is offering Casey a one-million-dollar annual pledge to her legal clinic for taking on just two jobs a year.

Her first assignment is to revive the case of Dwayne Hubbard, an indigent black man serving a life sentence for the rape and murder of a college student seventeen years ago. Using DNA evidence, Casey expects to easily prove Hubbard's innocence. Yet when she arrives in rural Auburn, New York, she meets immediate and aggressive resistance.

Tormented by death threats and assassination attempts, Casey investigates a prosecution apparently rife with lies. From the judge, the lawyers, the jury, to the police, she traces a web of corruption surrounding the destruction of one young man. But in all the chaos, Casey's hardest challenge may be just staying alive.

The Review: I find Tim Green to be an excellent writer of thrillers. Some day and I would like to meet him and ask where his ideas come from. This story took this reader from start to finish in such a great way I am almost at a loss for words to review the story.

Casey Jordan gets such a full bodied taste of corruption, as the story goes on, I want to just shout out loud. She is doing her job as she is asked to do, and "she" ends up in jail. Why?? And just who are her friends and foes? Foes are friends? Friends are foes???? What a web of confusion the author weaves. Just when I thought I figured out what the plot really was, boom! another twist gets thrown in. A must read for thrill seekers. 4.75 Stars
