Flood of Lies: The St. Rita's Nursing Home Tragedy
James Cobb
(Author)
Description
INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER BOOK AWARDS BEST REGIONAL NONFICTION OF THE SOUTH GOLD MEDAL
"When an elderly couple is charged with murder in the drowning deaths of thirty-five bed-ridden residents of St. Rita's Nursing Home, an emotional edge-of-your-seat thriller takes off like a shot! The players: a wily and profane defense lawyer, a ferocious prosecutor, vengeful families of the victims, and a ravenous media that brands the defendants 'Monsters of Hurricane Katrina.' My advice--block out enough time to read this wonderful book in one sitting."
--John Berendt, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
"A passionate and personal book, artfully constructed."
--Washington Post
"A war story of jurisprudence. . . . a book you wish wouldn't end."
--Daily Beast
