  • I could do without the music as a preface.

  • Im half-way through the book, and its pretty good i have to say...I wanna figure out who is the real killer, i hate those jailers who made up that crappy story of ron saying that to his mom.>.>And this is all very weird for me, because some of my family lives in Oklahoma.

  • amazing book- the world we live in is based on decisions we all make. Let this book teach you one thing- have interity. Bill Peterson?? No integrity and I bet he lives every second of his life knowing that and hating himself.

  • @bestfriendArt I haven't read it yet, but it already looks horrible. Thank God there's justice in Heaven and Ron desn't have anymore of the hardships he was dealt. It's great that Grisham and the others all got together to do something about the problem. It's horrifying to think we can't do anything and are forced to accept it. NO! People really need to band together. That's the only way there will ever be any hope of stopping things like this from repeating. The only hope of justice on earth.

  • i read this about a year ago.. what happened was horrible! :*(

  • God bless you all.

  • Reading this book and poor Ronnie, am just glad that hes in a better place know rest in peace.

  • I salute John Grisham that he took on the challenge on writing The Innocent Man book in spite of the controvesies, powerful enemies, implications that it could bring and did. Most authors wouldn't have the balls to go against the Judicial system and the wrath it could bring. Its brave people like Mark Barret and his colleagues, judge Frank Seay, Anette and Rene Williamson that shines as small lights of hope in a big room of darkness to say that there is a chance and not to give up.

  • and then we killed an innocent man...

    great book!!
