The Hangman's Debt

In the fictional state of Avalon, prosecutor Julian Sinclair sends Felix Draven to the gallows for the Aldermaston Massacre. A decade later, DNA proves Draven innocent and a serial killer confesses. Haunted by the wrongful execution, Sinclair discovers his prosecution was engineered by a clandestine state agency and his superior, who blackmailed him by threatening his pregnant wife. Trapped in a living hell of guilt and coerced silence, Sinclair embarks on a dangerous path of self-sacrifice to dismantle the corrupted machinery of justice, where the emotional prison of his secret proves far more torturous than any physical confinement.
