In After Homicide, Sarah Goodrum examines the experiences of the families of murder victims as they encounter detectives, prosecutors, counselors, and others in the criminal justice system. Goodrum traces each step of a murder investigation and trial, drawing on personal accounts and other primary sources. Based on extensive field research, her book is a uniquely comprehensive look at how the families of homicide victims are helped, and sometimes hindered, by the justice system.
