For the first time in print
An innocent guy is about to be put to death.
Saved only by a guilty guy.
In 1998, Travis Boyette kidnapped, sexually assaulted, and strangled a well-liked high school cheerleader in the little East Texas community of Sloan. He hid her corpse so it would never be discovered, then watched in disbelief as local football hero Donté Drumm was caught, found guilty, and sent to execution row by police and prosecutors.
It's been nine years now. Donté is four days away from being executed; Travis was just released from prison in Kansas due to a separate offense. Travis has a brain tumor that is incurable. He makes the moral decision to confess for the first time in his wretched existence. But how can a guilty man convince lawyers, judges, and politicians that they’re about to execute an innocent man?
