“They want to execute my wife, Perry.”

Clark’s mournful words shot straight through Perry’s heart and he dropped his gaze in sorrow. No matter how many times he went over it, he couldn’t remember testifying. Even if she was guilty, he would never do that to her. She was like a daughter to him.

His muttered platitudes sounded weak to his own ears as he struggled again to find an explanation. Clark believed him, but would it save Lois? Trudging back to his office, he fervently hoped that his best investigate reporters could somehow clear her name before it was too late.
