In this “courageous, compelling and essential and critically important book” (Bryan Stevenson), an award-winning scholar tackles her toughest research assignment yet: the unsolved murder of a Black man in rural Mississippi while her grandfather was the local sheriff, a cold case that sheds new light on the hidden legacy of racial terror in America. John Grisham calls the work “remarkable.” Join us at The NewSouth Bookstore for a talk by Grace Elizabeth Hale about her new book — a work of national and personal reckoning — on Thursday, September 12 at 5:30pm.
