描述
In 1970, one of Mississippi s more colorful weekly newspapers, The Ford County Times, went bankrupt. To the surprise and dismay of many, ownership was assumed by a 23-year-old college dropout, named Willie Traynor. The future of the paper looked grim until a young mother was brutally raped and murdered by a member of the notorious Padgitt family. Willie Traynor reported all the gruesome details, and his newspaper began to prosper.
The murderer, Danny Padgitt, was tried before a packed courthouse in Clanton, Mississippi. The trial came to a startling and dramatic end when the defendant threatened revenge against the jurors if they convicted him. Nevertheless, they found him guilty, and he was sentenced to life in prison.
But in Mississippi in 1970, life didn't necessarily mean life, and nine years later Danny Padgitt managed to get himself paroled. He returned to Ford County, and the retribution began.

I really enjoyed this book!! There is a lot of character development mixed with crime and trials. Although I ultimately loved the book and was surprised by the ending, I feel as though there were quite a few chapters (mostly part two) that seemed unnecessary to the story. If you are looking for a fast-paced crime novel, this may not be the one. But if you want more of character development along with a crime novel, I would highly recommend this book!
