Inhaltsangabe

“Yesterday began as a pretty normal prison day.” So begins Patty Prewitt’s final letter detailing her unexpected commutation and release from prison after thirty-eight years. In this second book, the follow up to Trying to Catch Lightning in a Jar, Prewitt describes the final twenty years of her incarceration with keen observation, humor, and compassion for those around her, while always maintaining her innocence.
