A Wild Justice: The Death and Resurrection of Capital Punishment in America
Author: Evan J. Mandery
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393239586
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice Drawing on never-before-published original source detail, the epic story of two of the most consequential, and largely forgotten, moments in Supreme Court history. For two hundred years, the constitutionality of capital punishment had been axiomatic. But in 1962, Justice Arthur Goldberg and his clerk Alan Dershowitz dared to suggest otherwise, launching an underfunded band of civil rights attorneys on a quixotic crusade. In 1972, in a most unlikely victory, the Supreme Court struck down Georgia’s death penalty law in Furman v. Georgia. Though the decision had sharply divided the justices, nearly everyone, including the justices themselves, believed Furman would mean the end of executions in America. Instead, states responded with a swift and decisive showing of support for capital punishment. As anxiety about crime rose and public approval of the Supreme Court declined, the stage was set in 1976 for Gregg v. Georgia, in which the Court dramatically reversed direction. A Wild Justice is an extraordinary behind-the-scenes look at the Court, the justices, and the political complexities of one of the most racially charged and morally vexing issues of our time.

WHEN Levi Stone pushes a picture of his wife Lauren in another man's arms across private-eye Evan Buckley's desk, Evan's all set to show him the door - because he doesn't do that sort of sleazy gutter work anymore.

As Evan digs deeper into Lauren's shadowy past, the things he unearths force Levi to face the bitter truth - that he never knew his wife at all - or any of the dark secrets that surround her mother's death and the disappearance of her father. And Evan isn't the only one looking for Lauren. A man from the past she never knew, evil incarnate, sends his dogs to hunt her down, to exact his rightful revenge.
