From veteran journalist Kevin Davis comes the compelling and critically acclaimed true story of a group of battle-hardened lawyers fighting for those accused of the ultimate crime.

Davis takes you behind the scenes with an elite and fascinating group of public defenders who handle only one kind of case: murder. In this dark corner of the criminal justice system, nothing is ever as it seems.

Crime writer and best selling author Michael Connelly says:

"Kevin Davis gets so far inside the story that you would swear he was sitting right there at the defense table. With a journalist's keen eye for telling detail and dialogue, he has written a completely gripping and revealing assessment of what is not only going on in our courtrooms but in our society as well. Defending the Damned is a great and important book."
