About the title
In 1963, eighteen-year-old Trish Weir was kidnapped and brutally raped by Ernesto Miranda. Trish's mother begins to blame her, American justice turns out to be biased, and society has no sympathy for rape victims. This destroys the girl's life, yet Trish remains strong and tries to get Ernesto sent to prison. Ultimately, the three-year legal process will lead to significant changes in the US legal system.
