"A brutal, adventurous tale..." -Kirkus Reviews

1934 - When strangers discover a young couple in an intimate moment, what follows is tragic and unforgivable. And when chance brings Willie Lee Jameson face-to-face with one of the attackers, violence erupts and the man--a member of a prominent local family--is killed. Even in a just world, Jameson might expect to pay a heavy price. In the Jim Crow South, he has sentenced himself and the woman he loves to a violent death.
