Whitcoulls Recommends: Framed and We are the Stars

Framed by John Grisham and Jim McCloskey. The authors have taken 10 cases of miscarriages of justice in the US and shown the impact of wrongful imprisonment on the men involved and their families and communities – but also look at how such things occur – the racism, misconduct, flawed testimony and court system that allows the convictions to stand and pleas for exoneration ignored – even when there is overwhelming evidence against the verdict.

We are the Stars by Gina Chick. Gina Chick is an Australian force of nature. She’s led an extraordinary life – an unconventional childhood, a love affair with a conman that sent her to the wilderness to find herself and recover, and is in possession of a truly elemental nature. Through love and grief, she’s used those qualities to make sense of the world and her place in it and she’s a fiercely tough, independent woman who’s been through the fire and out the other side.
