Can you? Then prepare yourself for the shocking, eye-opening \u003ci\u003eFinal Truth,\u003c\/i\u003e in which a woman who specializes in exposing lies finds herself trapped in a real-life  nightmare.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e All that stands between Lester Ray Barnes and the state of Florida’s  death chamber is a judge’s signature. He is sentenced to die for the rape and murder  of a young woman, his conviction hinging on two pieces of evidence: DNA testing and  an eyewitness who placed him at the scene. But when the story breaks that the DNA  testimony at trial had been fabricated and that the eyewitness was coerced by a cop,  all hell breaks loose. In the absence of credible evidence to sustain the conviction,  the court is forced to set Lester Ray free. It’s the sort of circus the media adore–until  it turns into the kind of Grimm’s fairy tale the media love even more.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Intrigued  by the story of a young man railroaded by justice, true-crime writer Regan Landry  is drawn into Lester Ray’s camp like a moth to a flame. For Regan, writing is a way  to stay connected to her late literary-legend father, and her knack for detective  work makes her a natural when it comes to uncovering new leads in even the murkiest  mysteries.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Eager for the spotlight, Lester Ray willingly agrees to work with Regan  on a tell-all about his experience as an innocent man on death row. But less than  a week after leaving prison, he vanishes from the Sunshine State. Soon after, darkness  descends on the outer banks of North Carolina as a string of women are raped and  murdered in a frenzied spree. Fearing the worst, Regan, along with Special Agent  Mitch Peyton and the FBI, sweeps in to confront the unspeakable: the horrifying possibility  that they have helped to free a cunning monster with an insatiable appetite for death–and  a ruthless determination never to be caged again.","brand":"Mariah Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Mass market (rack) paperback","offer_id":42689602781344,"sku":"9780345483843","price":5.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8637\/5072\/files\/BNCImageAPI_123aeed9-683b-400f-9d25-04e80c9acee9.jpg?v=1732128070","url":"https:\/\/rivendell-books.com\/products\/9780345483843","provider":"Rivendell Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
