Redemption and revelation on death row

The Paperboy could be a good read for those who enjoy crime thrillers with a powerful moral message. The book is gripping from start to finish and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The narrative explores the themes of redemption, truth, and forgiveness in the context of a small-town murder. The book's most distinctive feature is its character development as the main characters find themselves in a head-on collision between fate and truth.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The sun is rising over Moat County, Florida, when Sheriff Thurmond Call is found dead on the highway, gutted like an alligator. A local redneck is swiftly arrested, tried and sentenced to death. Ward James - hotshot investigative reporter - returns to his rural hometown, intrigued by the proposition from a death row femme fatale who promises him the story of the decade. She's armed with explosive evidence, aiming to free her convicted 'fiancé'. Together, they barrel down Florida's back roads and through its seamy underbelly in search of The Story, racing flat out into a head-on collision that will make headline news.
