圖書描述

<p>From David L. Robbins, bestselling author of <strong>The End of War</strong> and <strong>War of the Rats,</strong> comes a novel of searing intensity and uncompromising vision. Part mystery, part legal thriller, it is a story of crime and punishment set in a small southern town during one brutal, hot, and unforgiving summer that lays bare the potential of the human heart to hate鈥揳nd, ultimately, to heal. <br />

<br />

<strong>Scorched Earth</strong><br />

The inhabitants of Good Hope, Virginia, haven鈥檛 felt the cooling effects of rain in weeks. The crops are withering. The ground is parched. There is no relief in sight. With the town a tinderbox waiting to explode, all it takes is a spark to ignite all the prejudice, the rage, and the secrets that are so carefully kept hidden. And then, in the midst of the terrible heat, a tragedy occurs. A baby is born and dies in her mother鈥檚 arms. The child, Nora Carol, is buried quickly and quietly the next day in a church graveyard. It should have ended right there鈥揵ut it didn鈥檛, for Nora Carol is of mixed race.<br />

<br />

The white deacons of Good Hope鈥檚 Victory Baptist Church, trying to protect the centuries-old traditions of their cemetery, have the body exhumed. That night the church is set ablaze, and the sole witness is the only suspect鈥揈lijah Waddell, Nora Carol鈥檚 father.<br />

<br />

Nat Deeds, a former prosecutor and an exile of Good Hope, is pressed into service as Elijah鈥檚 attorney. With a politically savvy prosecutor and a vindictive sheriff aligned against him, Nat knows it will be nearly impossible to get Elijah acquitted. But Elijah refuses to accept a plea.<br />

<br />

As the evidence mounts, Nat begins to suspect there is something his client isn鈥檛 telling him, and the next revelation turns Good Hope into a powder keg: a body is found in the ashes of the church. Now Elijah is accused of murder, and the case is no longer a matter of winning or losing, but of life or death.<br />

<br />

The only way Nat can save his client is to scratch and claw for any shred of evidence, even if he has to bend the law to find it. As the summer heat intensifies and passions reach their boiling point, Nat must navigate through the incendiary secrets kept by friends and neighbors, by the guilty and the innocent, to an act of justice that has nothing to do with the law.</p>
