Innocent: Frank Doyle's Story, (Paperback)

Frank Doyle has spent forty-four years in federal prison for a murder he has always said he cannot remember committing. At seventy-three, released on humanitarian grounds, he arrives in a rain-soaked cottage outside Kilmihil, County Clare, carrying little more than prison clothes, legal records, and a battered cardboard folder he has kept close since 1975.<br>But Ireland is not the quiet ending Frank expected. His entry through Dublin Airport triggers a hidden intelligence flag. A journalist, Aoife Moran, begins asking why his name appears on a secret EU-US watch list. A government liaison offers help that feels too polished to trust. Then the forgotten folder reveals what Frank never knew he possessed: evidence buried for decades, evidence that may prove his innocence and expose the men who let him disappear into prison.<br>As old agencies, retired officials, and dangerous secrets converge, Frank must decide whether truth is worth the cost of publication. <i>Innocent</i> is a spare, atmospheric literary thriller about wrongful conviction, memory, state power, and the terrible patience of buried truth. It is a story of one man's stolen life-and of the fragile, hard-won possibility that the record can still be corrected.<br>
