While he was in prison, to keep himself sane, Nick educated himself (including learning about triskaidekaphobia, the fear of 13 which gives the book its name). Later, as the technology developed, Nick pressed for post-conviction DNA testing, which eventually led to him being acquitted of all charges. Nick tells of his experiences with immediacy and passion, and narrates his tale to brilliant charismatic effect both here and in the film of the same name released in 2015. Widely critically acclaimed, the film will debut on Netflix in November 2016 (date tbc) and this book is published to tie in with the release, adding a further dimension and more detail into Nick's compelling story. 600 10 $a Yarris, Nick, 600 10 $a Yarris, Nick $x Imprisonment. 650 0 $a False imprisonment $z United States. $v Biography. 650 0 $a Prisoners $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Judicial error $z United States. 650 0 $a Ex-convicts $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Death row inmates $z United States $v Biography. 650 7 $a Death row inmates $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888720 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Biography $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20180512010030.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BA66770655A911E89F5BD85A97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b HL6Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
