The Life We Bury by Allen Eskens.
"The Life We Bury by Allen Eskens is a riveting mystery book
that has many surprises in store. It follows the life of a college student, Joe
Talbert, as he does his best to navigate an English assignment. The assignment
brings him right to the room of Carl Iverson, a dying man that spent most of
his life in prison for murder. At first, Joe is focused on completing the
assignment and receiving his grade, however, he finds himself emerged in the
story of Carl Iverson and the young girl he was incarcerated for murdering, all
while Iverson claims innocence. Joe starts to believe there is more to the
story and attempts to get to the bottom of it. This is an awesome book and
definitely a must read if you like mysteries that will keep you on the edge of
your seat."
