  • "Kevin Shea is an innocent man caught in a sticky situation that makes him look as though he is a racist murderer. The only person that knows of his innocence is Lieutenant Abe Glitsky who is the head of the city's homicide detail. Unfortunately, Lieutenant Glitsky is distracted when an ex-lover and United States senator shows up, only to put her own spin on the story tearing the city apart. Now Shea must take matters into his own hands to prove his innocence before it's too late."@en
  • "When the angry white mob poured out of the bar on San Francisco's Geary Street and surrounded an innocent black man, Kevin Shea was the only one who tried to stop them. He failed, and now, thanks to a deceptive news photo taken during the melee, he is wanted for the murder himself-and the real culprits have threatened his life if he says a word. As riots rage and politicians posture, Lieutenant Abe Glitsky finds himself under pressure to bring Shea in at all costs. And as respect for the law crumbles-even among those sworn to uphold it-true justice is the only thing that can prevent the death of another innocent man."
  • "A novel that examines the nature of justice--and injustice--follows an ordinary man who, through no fault of his own, is hounded, hunted, and almost destroyed for a crime he did not commit."@en
  • "In San Francisco, a black lawyer is mistaken for a killer and lynched by whites. A white bystander trying to save him by cutting the rope is photographed holding a knife and portrayed by a newspaper as the mob's leader. The city explodes into violence, politicians outdo each other calling for retribution and a decent man runs for his life."@en

  • "In San Francisco - a city of tolerance and hope - everything came apart. One man died at the hands of another. The next victim was killed by a mob. Now fires burn in the night, helicopters throb through the air, and politicians, lawyers and cops vie for the remnants of power. Somewhere in the once-placid streets of San Francisco, a young man is on the run, charged by the media with a crime he didn't commit, hounded by demagogues, hunted by a desperate police department. One cop knows that Kevin Shea is innocent of a brutal racial murder. An ambitious politician will use Shea for her own ends. And a down-and-out lawyer is all that stands between Kevin Shea and an even more atrocious crime. For when there's not law left, justice it the only hope."
  • "Justitie maakt jacht op een man die op een foto van een lynchpartij staat, maar het lijkt niemand te kunnen schelen dat hij de zwarte man probeerde te redden."
