BOOK DESCRIPTION:
In the summer of 1962, Earnest March, a young black man,
is seen driving away from his white girlfriend, who is clearly upset, and
all the men in town take off after him. They report that he got away, but
some days later, Fannie discovers his body floating in the Mississippi. Just
who is responsible for Earnest March's death is clear, even to Fannie, but
how that murder changes Fannie and the town, whether anyone in her own
family was involved and whether guilt can be proved are mysteries that
Neilson artfully develops.
A town in Mississippi is rocked to its core in 1961 when a young black man
is found murdered, washed up on the river's shore. Fannie Leary, the white
owner of the town's only cafe , discovers the body, but when she brings the
sheriff back to the scene, it has disappeared. Fannie struggles to reconcile
the expectation that she keep silent with what she feels she owes to Mattie,
her black cook and cousin of the murdered boy. The story comes out, the FBI
comes to investigate, and the white community whose balance she has
disrupted shuns Fannie.
