Overview
Arrested without charge. Shipped to Guantanamo. And his only hope is one stubborn lawyer.
Santa Barbara accountant Ahmed Khury answers a desperate call from his brother in Iraq and disappears. Days later he is in a cell at Guantanamo Bay, tortured for information he does not have. Attorney Brent Marks takes the case no one else will touch: an American citizen against the full weight of the Patriot Act. The courtroom battle is fierce, but the danger outside it is worse, and when murder and cover-up enter the picture, nobody is safe.
2015 RONE Award nominee.
