Convicted murderer Melvin Mars is counting down the last hours before his executionâ??for the violent killing of his parents twenty years earlierâ??when he's granted an unexpected reprieve. Another man has confessed to the crime.

Both men's families were brutally murdered. And in both cases, another suspect came forward, years after the killing, to confess to the crime. A suspect who may or may not have been telling the truth.
The confession has the potential to make Melvin Marsâ??guilty or notâ??a free man. Who wants Mars out of prison? And why now?
But when a member of Decker's team disappears, it becomes clear that something much largerâ??and more sinisterâ??than just one convicted criminal's life hangs in the balance. Decker will need all of his extraordinary brainpower to stop an innocent man from being executed for a crime he didn't com

• The beginning was slow, and the middle was jumbled a bit, but it kept my interest and I couldn’t put it down without thinking about the characters and how the story was going to play out
• I very much like Melvin Mars.
• Some of the story was predictable and some, mostly unimportant, questions remain but it was overall really good. ( )

Synopsis: 'Convicted murderer Melvin Mars is counting down the last hours before his execution - for the violent killing of his parents twenty years earlier - when he's granted an unexpected reprieve. Another man has confessed to the crime.
Amos Decker, newly hired on an FBI special task force, takes an interest in Mars's case after discovering the striking similarities to his won life: Both men were talented football players with promising careers cut short by tragedy. Both men's families were brutally murdered. And in both cases, another suspect came forward, years after the killing, to confess to the crime. A suspect who may or may not have been telling the truth. The confession has the potential to make Melvin Mars - guilty or not - a free man. Who wants Mars out of prison? And why now?
But when a member of Decker's team disappears, it becomes clear that something much larger - and more sinister - than just one convicted criminal's life hangs in the balance. Decker will need all of his extraordinary brainpower to stop an innocent man from being executed.' From book jacket.
Review: Really good story and a page-turner, to boot. ( )

READ. Very involved plot, lots of interesting characters, plot twists, surprises - a real rollercoaster ride! Well narrated. Recommended.

FROM AMAZON: Convicted murderer Melvin Mars is counting down the last hours before his execution--for the violent killing of his parents twenty years earlier--when he's granted an unexpected reprieve. Another man has confessed to the crime.

Amos Decker, newly hired on an FBI special task force, takes an interest in Mars's case after discovering the striking similarities to his own life: Both men were talented football players with promising careers cut short by tragedy. Both men's families were brutally murdered. And in both cases, another suspect came forward, years after the killing, to confess to the crime. A suspect who may or may not have been telling the truth.

The confession has the potential to make Melvin Mars--guilty or not--a free man. Who wants Mars out of prison? And why now?

But when a member of Decker's team disappears, it becomes clear that something much larger--and more sinister--than just one convicted criminal's life hangs in the balance. Decker will need all of his extraordinary brainpower to stop an innocent man from being executed. ( )
