Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Grady Finch has been convicted of murdering a convenience-store owner, though has gotten many to believe in his innocence (minus the alleged victim's son) since he wasn't at the scene of the crime and the one who spread the story was a drug-addict. Sentenced to die by lethal injection, he is temporarily saved when the system breaks down, and later says he heard a voice as it happened when he thought he was going to die repeating "Not yet". Though other cases make he and his lawyer Liz think he'll have another year, another execution is scheduled the following night. It fails a second time, and he again hears the voice. When a different method is used, the machines fail and he not only hears the chant but, while his face is masked, sees an image of one whom he believes is a guardian angel. Against Liz's advice, he adds to his fame by talking about his guardian angel and belief that he is being kept alive to prove higher judgment exists. He even escapes a murder attempt. But what is the reason Grady Finch is being kept alive, and what is his destiny? Written by brainybrailler@comcast.net |
