By Thomas Thompson. This story is classic true crime: a black widower (possibly); a vengeful father (allegedly?); a legal precedent (Texas's first "murder by omission" indictment...basically, the inverse of Good Samaritan statutes as I understand it? not a lawyer!); and a story so complex and twisty that ID producers and podcasters can't resist it. AND a TV movie starring Farrah and Sam Elliott!
The paperback has some shelfwear, page toning, and a previous owner's name in pencil on the flyleaf -- but the pages are clean/not dog-eared. It'll get the job done.
