One of his best books by far & a wonderfully done movie as well. If you enjoyed the book or movie, I have to share with you a new film coming out in Feb. that is based on a book & true story as well. Deadline is the story of the unsolved murder of an African American young man in rural Alabama. But an ambitious journalist changes that when he decides to take the investigation on himself. Watch the trailer at deadlinefilm.com for more info & put this one on your list to see for 2012. Thanks again for reminding me of this classic book!
