Black-Eyed Susans focuses on the survivor of a serial killer's attempt who has come to believe that the man about to be executed for the murders is innocent. The chapters alternate from present day (the run-up to the execution) to the past (the crime and the trial). Other than one egregious factual error that took me out of the story (Anastasia was NOT a Disney film!), this was an intriguing book.

Thanks for posting, I just picked up Black Eyed Susans as the audible daily deal($3.95)
