The monster who had seduced the boys had been locked away for what amounted to a life sentence, until an appellate court set aside the verdict and granted him a new trial. Some of the thirteen victims were beginning to recover, but others never would. Most of them had lost their faith in a system that had already failed them, and vowed that this second time, the prey would become the predators and the Judgment would be final. But other factions were also plotting. Some thought innocence was too great a price to pay for vengeance, while others sought to protect their individual fortunes no matter the cost as long as others paid it. In a misadventure in which there are no truly selfless acts, and the line separating Good and Evil is in the eyes of the beholder, there are champions, but there are no saints, and whether or not the crime is truly a Murder by an Innocent is more a matter of moral judgment than a question of law. Perspectives can be altered, for better or for worse, by the wild beauty of Morongo and the diversity of life struggling to surviving there. This is the first of the Morongo Murders, works of fiction inspired by cases the author prosecuted during 23 years spent at the Morongo Basin Office of the District Attorney of San Bernardino County.
