    [synopsis] => Creighton's first love was always music, but after college he found himself performing in courtrooms rather than on stages or in concert halls. Inspired by the portrayal of Atticus Finch in the movie “To Kill a Mockingbird”, he went to law school to become a defense attorney, but his career path took an unanticipated turn. For nearly three decades, Creighton prosecuted many of Utah's most notorious criminal cases — cases which drew widespread press attention at the time.

Now, in “A Reluctant Prosecutor”, he recounts his personal journey through Utah's criminal justice system, with some fascinating twists and turns, and some unforgettable characters. You'll read about bombings, murders, political intrigue, public corruption, polygamists, imperious and eccentric judges, capital cases, con men, overreaching cops, venal public officials, and innocent people convicted of murders they didn't commit.

Throughout the book, Creighton explores aspects of the high-profile cases he prosecuted that were never publicly reported, and he delves deeply into the ethical issues surrounding justice, crime and punishment.
