A modern day 'In Cold Blood'
This is a pretty incredibly written book about a real life murder investigation coinciding with the author's own harrowing experiences. While true crime is now a hot genre, Alexandria Marzano-Lesnevich has weaved together a humane story, a backdrop of how this horrifying crime occurred not dissimilar to how Truman Capote wrote In Cold Blood. However, her own horrific story parallels the investigation giving the entire novel a whole new dimension. Recommended read indeed.

The hype is definitely justified for this film. It's between this film and @Witness for the Prosecution (1957) for the best courtroom dramas ever made.
The tension is perfect throughout the movie, and the decision-making process on whether or not the defendant was guilty of the crime or not.
Every courtroom drama after this film has been undoubtedly inspired by this film. If you've never seen it and are a fan of courtroom/crime genres, this is a can't-miss film.
