In 1966 in Pulaski, Tennessee, Bocephus Haynes watched in horror as
his father was brutally murdered by ten local members of the Ku
Klux Klan. As an African American lawyer practicing in the
birthplace of the Klan years later, Bo has spent his life pursuing
justice in his father's name. But when Andy Walton, the man
believed to have led the lynch mob forty-five years earlier, ends
up murdered in the same spot as Bo's father, Bo becomes the prime
suspect. Retired law professor Tom McMurtrie, Bo's former teacher
and friend, is a year removed from returning to the courtroom. Now
McMurtrie and his headstrong partner, Rick Drake, must defend Bo on
charges of capital murder while hunting for Andy Walton's true
killer. In a courtroom clash that will put their reputations and
lives at stake, can McMurtrie and Drake release Bo from a lifetime
of despair? Or will justice remain hidden somewhere between black
and white?
