Thought provoking dystopian legal thriller about justice and morals

In order to end capital punishment a movement comes up with the Remedies Act that ensures that the prosecutor who calls for capital punishment will face execution themself if new evidence prooves the convicted were in fact innocent. Prosecutor Justine, once a member of this movement, perturbed by grief, has sent a man to death row. As she is later presented with new evidence and dives deeper in to the life of the man she once thought guilty, she faces the moral dilemma of how to undo the undoable. Overall a gripping plot that invites the reader to reevaluate personal takes on moral dilemmas.
