Review:
I found this book on Scribd.
Prosecutor turned author Penn Cage and his daughter are returning to his home town of Nachez Mississippi to join his parents after the death of his wife.
What he finds when he gets home is his father being blackmailed and a reporter that stirs the pot on race by interviewing him about a decades old murder. Finding himself embroiled int he mystery of who killed a young black man many years ago leads Penn on a hunt that leads back all the way to the FBI. Slowly he starts uncovering a conspiracy involving the "good old boys" club and politics.
Taking a leap of faith he embarks on a case that could either make of break him, as well as create enemies in his small home town from people who would rather the murder never be solved and want sleeping dogs to stay sleeping.
Excellent mystery that introduces us to Penn Cage and his small home town.
