Dead End: Befriending the Friendless: One woman's heartwarming encounters with murderers and sex offenders (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781916801813)

Dead End is one woman's story of her unexpected journey into the lives of society's most rejected people. What began as a haunting question after a tragic double murder in her hometown led a shy mother of three to do the unthinkable --- write to the man responsible. That first act of curiosity grew into an unlikely friendship and ultimately opened the door to decades of correspondence and visits with prisoners, including men on death row in the US and prisons in the UK.

Throughout the stories in each chapter, the author explores the complex humanity behind terrible crimes while holding firmly to the belief that redemption is possible. This powerful and deeply personal memoir invites readers to look beyond labels, confront uncomfortable questions about justice and mercy, and discover the transformative power of compassion and grace.
