Why read it?
1 author picked It Happened to Audrey as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this book because it is incredibly educational about the problem of wrongful convictions in baby death cases, but at the same time, that education is wrapped around the ordeal of a young woman caught up in a wrongful conviction.

From Justin's list on wrongful convictions.
