'Bone Valley is a work of rare moral clarity and deep compassion.' - Sister Helen Prejean, author of Dead Man Walking
In 1988, Leo Schofield was arrested and charged with the murder of his wife, Michelle. Always insistent on his innocence, he was poorly served by his legal defense: the investigation was sloppy, the case flimsy and numerous pieces of evidence were ignored. He was sentenced to life in prison.
Over thirty years later, Gilbert King is tipped off to Leo's case and is astonished by what he finds: layers of corruption, flawed evidence and deep-seated errors. He can't shake the story and starts to get to know Leo and his family. Leo shows an incomprehensible amount of grace and love about his situation, which spurs Gilbert even more to tell his story.
Bone Valley is at once a revelatory investigation into a murder, a chilling portrait of the US criminal justice system and a uniquely powerful story of grace and redemption. Gilbert King has written a new classic of narrative nonfiction.
