Steve (USA: NY) (2007/10/18):
This was one of those times where I wasnt currently reading anything and saw this book and decided to give it a shot, not expecting much. I was extremely surprised, it was truly well written and for a story that you'd expect to be interesting but not quite suspenful it was extroidinarily both.
This is the story of only one man, but his story is a caution for anyone. We live in a country where we dont seem to care much about our fellow humans unless their lives somehow border our own. I remember hearing about this story in the news and really didnt even give it time enough to read the entire articles, as most Americans. This man was accused of something after reading this book you entirely believe he never did and had his life, career and reputation ruined. This was a case of National Security, or so accused, so it got press. It's scary to think of how many people are out there, that may truly be innocent but have just as hard of a time as Mr.Lee climbing out of the broken wheels of justice.
