Record of Wrongs — Andy Straka

Quentin Price was a college security guard near Binghamton, NY, when he was accused of raping and murdering coed Gwen Crawford. After ten years in prison, DNA proves him innocent. Ironically, Gwen's mother Ruth wants to team up with Quentin to find Gwen's real killer, though her ex-husband, retired cop Jack Crawford, still believes in Quentin's guilt. Complicating the situation is the fact that Quentin is black and the victim white. Even in a quiet place like Binghamton, justice is not colorblind. Racial prejudice played a role in Quentin's quick conviction and still feeds Jack's blind hatred of him. The court system, in a belated attempt to do the right thing, summons black NYC detective Garnell Harris back to his hometown to look into the case with fresh eyes. As Ruth, Quentin, and Garnell investigate, lots of questions arise that need answering. The biggest--whether Quentin could really be guilty after all.
