Through intimate portraits of four exonerated prisoners, journalist
Alison Flowers explores what happens to innocent people after the
state flings open the jailhouse door and tosses them back,
empty-handed, into the unknown. From the front lines of the
wrongful conviction capital of the United States Cook County,
Illinois investigative journalist Alison Flowers recounts
profoundly human stories of reclaiming life, overcoming adversity,
and searching for purpose after exoneration. As she tells each
exoneree's powerful story, Flowers vividly shows that release from
prison, though sometimes joyous and hopeful, is not a Hollywood
ending or an ending at all. Rather, an exoneree's first unshackled
steps are the beginning of a new journey full of turmoil and
uncertainty. Flowers also sheds new light on the collateral damage
of wrongful convictions on families and communities, confronting
deeper problems of mass incarceration and the criminal justice
system.
