miguelf's review against another edition
4.0
A gripping account by a gruff minister of his life and work on exoneration cases for those wrongly accused in the US justice system. McCloskey has an engaging writing style that draws in the reader / listener with the lives and cases of those he helped and both his life and those falsely accused are given very real portraits, warts and all. This is the rare case where the author goes into his religious beliefs and faith that drives him that doesn’t feel condescending or holier-than-thou, in fact it feels the opposite of that and actually resembles the life that a modern day Jesus-type would actually live.

Lousy audio. Author full of himself. Redeemed by stories of freed wrongly convicted.

If you liked Just Mercy, you'll probably like this as well.
