When Carl Lee Hailey guns down the monsters who have raped his ten-year-old child, the people of Clanton see it as a crime of blood and call for his acquittal.

But when extremists outside Clanton hear that a black man has killed two white men, they invade the town, determined to destroy anything and anyone that opposes their sense of justice.

Release #45 of the 2023 movie books release challenge.

I picked this up from my little library. I might take this one on holidays to read. Thank you.

A marvelous read. To think this was rejected by publishers, until after his next book, The Firm, was accepted. This is one of the best reads I have had for some time. It's quite a long read, but I didn't find it was padded. I have not read The Firm, but a quick search shows I once had a copy, but I placed it in my little free library.

Released at the Canberra Bookcrossing Christmas Party in Reid, ACT. Enjoy.
