520    When the final gavel clapped in a rural southern courtroom
       in the summer of 1988, Willie J. Grimes, a gentle spirit 
       with no record of violence, was shocked and devastated to 
       be convicted of first-degree rape and sentenced to life 
       imprisonment. Here is the story of this everyman and his 
       extraordinary quarter-century-long journey to freedom, 
       told in breathtaking and sympathetic detail, from the 
       botched evidence and suspect testimony that led to his 
       incarceration to the tireless efforts to prove his 
       innocence and the identity of the true perpetrator. These 
       were spearheaded by his relentless champion, Christine 
       Mumma, a cofounder of North Carolina's Innocence Inquiry 
       Commission. That commission-unprecedented at its inception
       in 2006-remains a model organization unlike any other in 
       the country, and one now responsible for a growing number 
       of exonerations. With meticulous, prismatic research and 
       pulse-quickening prose, Benjamin Rachlin presents one 
       man's tragedy and triumph. The jarring and unsettling 
       truth is that the story of Willie J. Grimes, for all its 
       outrage, dignity, and grace, is not a unique travesty. But
       through the harrowing and suspenseful account of one life,
       told from the inside, we experience the full horror of 
       wrongful conviction on a national scale. Ghost of the 
       Innocent Man is both rare and essential, a masterwork of 
       empathy. The book offers a profound reckoning not only 
       with the shortcomings of our criminal justice system but 
       also with its possibilities for redemption.
