In the 1960s, racism was rampant in Jackson, Mississippi, and it was common for white men caught in the act of killing blacks to be acquitted by all-white juries. But 40 years later, someone is seeking justice; those same men are turning up dead – in the identical manner in which they killed their victims. Now, James Reynolds, who has overcome the odds – and his own personal demons – to become the only black prosecutor in Jackson, will face the toughest case of his life: He’ll have to prosecute prime suspect Martin Matheson, a brilliant professor, the son of a venerated Civil Rights leader, and the newly appointed folk hero for thousands of African Americans hungry for retribution.
