I Know Where the Light Is
by (u. S.) Anthony Ray Hinton Laura Love Harding
About This Novel
In 1985, Hinton, 29, was arrested in Alabama and charged with two counts of murder. Despite the apparent lack of evidence, he was placed on death row. The injustice of fate did not break him. While waiting for execution, he became a beacon - actively helping people around him, listening to inmates, organizing reading groups, and in the end, even prison guards would ask him for help. He never gave up the fight for freedom and firmly believed that he would one day walk out of death row with dignity. Finally, in 2015, Hinton was immediately released with approval from the U. S. Supreme Court. After being released from prison, he promoted judicial reform and used his own example to encourage people in trouble to persist in kindness and live positive lives.
