pickRNP was for a good time one of my go to authors. I enjoyed his issues based novels with political and legal settings. He returns to this model here. An up and coming liberal politician from Boston finds his past pushing him to Georgia where a young black man out canvassing and helping both poor and black people sign up to vote is arrested for killing a white police officer. It‘s powerfully written and clear the author is passionate ⬇️
Itchyfeetreader About the topic at hand and writes wonderfully three dimensional characters esp the main lawyer in the case BUT the work is changing quickly and I wonder whether this story might have been better told by a black author. Given multiple publishers passed on the book initially I am not alone in questioning this. 3w
