Anotace knihy

If you Google 'Dr Stephen Edwards' you will find news stories of him  allegedly murdering his elderly mother, being sent to jail for three months  and then on bail for four years until the case was dropped. Edwards, a  former general practitioner who specialised in nursing home patients and  palliative care, was deregistered after the charge of euthanising his mother  was brought against him.

The case was closed after he was diagnosed with  terminal cancer and given six to thirteen months to live in January 2020.  He left Tasmania to live in inner Sydney. The story of how Edwards was  charged with conspiring with his brother to murder his mother confronts the most fundamental questions of life and death, magnified by his own  diagnosis of terminal cancer which he stubbornly refuses to accept.

His  incarceration in Tasmania's most notorious high-security jail brought  him into direct contact with mass murderer Martin Bryant as well as  the inequities and perverse injustices of the prison system. Dubbed 'Dr  Death' by his fellow inmates, he nevertheless earned their respect. He was  only the second person in Australia to be granted bail for murder, and  his treatment highlights the lottery that is the justice system. Perversely,  the dropping of the charges against him makes it impossible to clear his  name. His narrative of the events that led to his murder charge and his  fight for justice makes for compelling reading.
