Book desription: New York, New York, U.S.A.: Crown publishers, Inc., 1991. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Fine. I saw the silhouette of my father with the sun coming up behind him. And he had his hands up above his head with a rock in them." With those chilling words, a 29 year-old California woman accused her father in court of having killed her best friend 20 years ago. After wracking indecision, Eileen went public with her shocking accusation, pitting father and family against daughter in the cruel glare of national publicity. George Franklin was tried and convicted on January 29, 1991; he was sentenced to life in prison. This is the harrowing, moving story of a dreadful crime and one daughter's courageous struggle to overcome her own fears to see that justice would ultimately be served. 353 pages, including 8 pages of photographs. The binding has three small stains on the front, one on the back. The bottom corners are lightly worn. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
