Georgia, 1910. The widow Lucy Hightower looks to her land overseer, Adam Atwell, a black man, to protest her children's future. Their business partnership--unusual in the segregated south--pits them against bankers and speculators out to steal the Hightower land. Adam faces murder, financial ruin, and the specter of Jim Crow as he fights for Lucy's legacy to her children. No library descriptions found. |
