Book Description
In rural Louisiana, prisoners are worth less than $25 a day to Sheriffs who have built economies around mass and lengthy incarcerations. When Paul Theriot returns to the swamps of Louisiana to reconcile with his dying father, he takes Kenny Cooper's appeal to pass the time. Playing by his own rules and not caring about the collateral damage he leaves in his wake, Paul will do everything he can to get Kenny out of jail and to shed light on a corrupt, unjust system.
