Description
In a small Mississippi town, a series of brutal murders begins to unravel a dark and violent history. When detectives investigate, they discover a chilling pattern: at each crime scene lies a second body, eerily resembling a victim of a past atrocity. As similar killings surface across the nation, the investigation unearths a deeply buried legacy of racial injustice and violence that refuses to stay buried. This provocative and propulsive novel masterfully confronts the enduring trauma of lynching and police brutality, demanding that the past be reckoned with.
