His task is to interview a stranger and write a brief biography of the person. With deadlines looming, Joe heads to a nearby nursing home to find a willing subject. There he meets Carl Iverson, and soon nothing in Joe&#8217;s life is ever the same. Carl is a dying Vietnam veteran&#8211;and a convicted murderer. With only a few months to live, he has been medically paroled to a nursing home, after spending thirty years in prison for the crimes of rape and murder. As Joe writes about Carl&#8217;s life, especially Carl&#8217;s valor in Vietnam, he cannot reconcile the heroism of the soldier with the despicable acts of the convict. Joe, along with his skeptical female neighbor, throws himself into uncovering the truth, but he is hamstrung in his efforts by having to deal with his dangerously dysfunctional mother, the guilt of leaving his autistic brother vulnerable, and a haunting childhood memory. Thread by thread, Joe unravels the tapestry of Carl\u2019s conviction. But as he and Lila dig deeper into the circumstances of the crime, the stakes grow higher. Will Joe discover the truth before it\u2019s too late to escape the fallout?    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Seventh Street Books; First Paperback Edition (October 14, 2014)   <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    English   <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    304 pages   <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    1616149981   <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    978-1616149987   <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    9.6 ounces   <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    5.5 x 0.9 x 8.25 inches   <\/p>\n<p><b>Price:<\/b> <span style=\"color:#b12704\"><del>$19.95<\/del> - $17.89<\/span><br \/><i><small>(as of Feb 28, 2025 03:36:44 UTC &#8211; <span class=\"wp_automatic_amazon_disclaimer\" title=\"Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date\/time indicated and are subject to change.
