Publisher's Synopsis
Rick Brewer thought the robbery would be "easy in, easy out" when he rounded up a team to rob the Bread Store. But when they arrived, there was no money, and Brewer shot employee Jason Frost three times at close range with a sawed-off Mossberg shotgun.
John O'Mara, for twenty years the top prosecutor in Sacramento's homicide division, must decide whether or not to seek the death penalty, and his team of prosecutors must fight for justice for the family and the state.
This case-and others that are just as shocking, including the case against Nikolay Soltys, the Ukranian émigré who slit the throat of his pregnant wife and then killed four members of his family, including his three-year-old son, and a high-profile case involving the SLA and Patty Hearst-is the subject of The Prosecutors, a graphic, behind-the-scenes look at how the criminal justice system really operates.
