| MEAN JUSTICE: A Town's Terror, A Prosecutor's Power, A Betrayal of
Innocence (Simon & Schuster; February 19, 1999; $26.00) is a stunning
portrait of a California community so obsessed with making itself safe
from crime that it has created one of the toughest justice systems in the
country -- and, in the process, sent a shocking number of innocent men
and women to prison for crimes they did not commit.
Humes' nonfiction account reads like many of the courtroom novels so popular now -- except that Pat Dunn is real, a victim and in prison. ~ New York Daily News A truly terrifying story, as scary as any work of fiction -- more so, because everything here actually happened. ~ Booklist
