    “Book Descriptions: This astounding true story began in 1966 when, in a flagrant miscarriage of justice, middleweight boxing contender Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter was sentenced to life for the murder of three men in a New Jersey bar.

    Thirteen years later, through extraordinary coincidence, Lesra, a Brooklyn youth adopted by a group of Canadians, brought the attention of his Canadian family to Carter's memoirs, The Sixteenth Round. It was a book destined to change Lesra's life forever, and the lives of his entire adopted family.

    Outraged and moved by Rubin's story, Lesra and his Canadian friends decided to take up his cause. The inspiring relationship which ensued forms the heart of LAZARUS & THE HURRICANE — a riveting legal drama, a fast-paced murder investigation and a moving account of hope and humanity and the indomitability of the human spirit.”
