Anything is good, in moderation. I cook because I love to and because I can share with those around me. I crochet for the same reason.

Do what you want to do, enjoy what you do and use it to touch those around you.

The book follows the story of Christopher and Rosemary Thomas and their investigating officer, John Nunn.  Rosemary is convicted of killing Christopher, but the officer who  investigated the case falls apart with doubt after the conviction.  Ten years after the conviction and sentencing, we find John Nunn still trying to find what, if anything he missed.  We learn about Rosemary's Brother, John's Ex-wife and her new husband and several others who have lived a lie for ten years that comes out in a a rather unexpected service.
