On July 4, 1954, Marilyn Sheppard, the wife of prominent Cleveland osteopath Dr. Sam Sheppard was bludgeoned to death. On that day, the author's life changed forever when her father became swept up in the "crime of the century." He and a group of neighbors were convinced Dr. Sam killed his wife, so they banded together to bring him to justice. Although she was only six, the author joined her father in this crusade and Dr. Sam was convicted of second degree murder. It was the happiest time of her life. Once Dr. Sam was behind bars, Prudence's relationship with her father soured and they became mortal enemies. For years she struggled to break free from the smothering conformity of her parents and her conservative home town. She finally escaped Bexley and broke her parents hearts by becoming a hippie and a student radical. It was only after her father's death that she learned some surprising secrets about him that caused her to see him in a whole new life.
