Summary:

A compelling dual-narrated story from Jennifer Latham that questions how far we’ve come with race relations.

Some bodies won’t stay buried.

Some stories need to be told.

When seventeen-year-old Rowan Chase finds a skeleton on her family’s property, she has no idea that looking into the brutal century-old murder will lead to a summer of painful discoveries approximately today’s and the past.

Nearly one hundred years earlier, a misguided violent encounter propels seventeen-year-old Will Tillman into a racial firestorm. Within a nation rife with assault against blacks and a hometown segregated by Jim Crow, Will must make hard choices on an agonizing journey towards self discovery and face his inner demons in order to do what’s right the night Tulsa burns.

Through intricately interwoven alternating perspectives, Jennifer Latham’s lightning-paced page-turner brings the Tulsa race riot of 1921 to blazing life and raises essential questions about the complicated state of US race relations–both last night and today.
