No one could have fathomed the impact that fourteen-year-old Emmett
Till's death would have on race relations, politics, and civil
rights after he was brutally murdered in the sweltering Mississippi
Delta. Young Emmett's death had a direct influence on award-winning
freelance journalist Jamal Peterson who travels to the Mississippi
Delta to cover the murder trial and gets more than he bargained.
The men who killed Emmett Till are acquitted, but they do not
escape a supernatural justice meted upon them by Emmett's ghost.
Negroes in the Delta view Emmett Till's ghost as a blessing when
his specter begins to strike fear in the hearts and minds of
evildoers. This novel is intended to commemorate the death of
Emmett Till.
