Justice for Toby: A Fish Springs Novel

The year is 1883. The place is Fish Springs—a remote mountain community in rugged East Tennessee. The grisly murder of a black man and the pursuit of his killer in predominantly white Carter County rekindle old hatred and bigotry. Will the victim’s killer be caught and brought to justice? Or will the white power structure in this mountain community dismiss the murder as just another Negro who got out of line and deserved to die? The Ku Klux Klan gets involved, and the accused murderer hires a take-no-prisoners, crafty defense attorney. Witnesses are threatened, property is destroyed and the well-intentioned but outmanned county sheriff has his hands full. Read all about it—and the climactic ending— in Justice for Toby
