About the Book
Available once again--Woods' Edgar Award-winning, "New York Times" bestseller spans 50 years of racial tension, politics, and murder in the small Southern town of Delano, Georgia, as three very different generations of policemen seek to stop a depraved killer.Book Synopsis
Stuart Woods's Edgar Award-winning debut novel--a classic American mystery saga about three generations of lawmen tangled in a web of passion, secrets, destiny, and murder in their small Southern town... In the winter of 1920, the first body is found in Delano, Georgia--the naked, brutalized corpse of a young boy. It is a crime too horrific to be ignored, the first of many that will span four decades--embroiling three police chiefs in a remarkable manhunt that will expose the hatreds, fear, and festering wounds beneath the surface of their sleepy God-fearing community.Review Quotes
