The Playhouse on the Square in Memphis will open 2007 with “The Exonerated,” the true accounts of six innocent survivors of death row, told in their own words. I will lead an audience discussion after the performance on Jan. 20. See more at Playhouse on the Square.
"Boys on the Tracks" Now in Paperback
I have just finished reading your book about the West Memphis Three. I have heard of these things happening before, but for some reason it never affected me until I got your book and realized, Jason was me! He was just like I was when I was a kid. Average student into metal music, had friends that were considered weird, and wore metal shirts. And to get convicted off of that. Amazing. Your writing was easy to follow and fascinating. Usually I take my time with a book since I am in the Army and deployed right now. But I absolutly devoured this book and could not put it down. Thank you for taking the time to write this book and open my eyes to something that I never knew had happened.—Michael Taylor
I just wanted to say ‘thank you’ for writing “Devil’s Knot”. I only heard about the WM3 case for the first time in 2006 but since then I have been trying to learn all that I can and have been trying to follow the appeal process, with my fingers crossed. Your book helped to fill in holes and answer questions I had. It was hard to get through some parts simply because the facts make me so angry but I kept reading and am happy I did.
