The Edge of Innocence

The Edge of Innocence

Florence Bennet is found dead in a bathtub of scalding water. Her husband, Casper, claims that he found her like that, but his burned hands tell a different story.

Or so the police and almost the entire population of Lorain believe.

And as the Bennetts’ marriage with its secrets of alcohol, affairs and abuse is laid bare in the courtroom, it looks like the only possible verdict is murder.

Bennett’s sensational trial more than fifty years ago pitted an aggressive, mercurial county prosecutor against a defense team that included Ray Miraldi.

In the tradition of John Grisham and Scott Turow, The Edge of Innocence, written by Ray Miraldi’s son, David, recreates the tension and excitement of this true courtroom battle, and also reveals the uncertain edge that often divides guilt from innocence.

And there is more than one twist in the case that was revealed long after the case was settled!
