Though I dreaded the review of a dark time in Mississippi history, the plot was reviting and the characters were well developed.

I liked the writing style – I felt I was looking over the main character’s shoulder as he conducted his investigation. The author nailed the look, feel, and smell of the 1960’s Mississippi Delta.

Right now I don’t like the author very much. Percy Lynchard caused me to lose sleep because I was too busy turning pages to close my eyes.
I’m from the area and knew many of the people depicted. Spot on characterizations.
Fascinating murder mystery, true life character. Starts a little slow, but that changes quickly.
Excellent read.
