Kya, young marsh girl is abandoned by her whole family at the marsh cabin.A black couple has mercy on her and sees that she has food and clothes. A neighbor boy Tate teaches her to read and write and do math. Kya is very smart and is soon at the college level.Kya is arrested and put in jail for murdering a young town's man. An old man lawyer takes her case pro bono. All the sheriff wants is a person to charge with murder and fits the case around Kya. I do not know whether she did or did not commit the murder but she seems like a convenient suspect. If she did not do it supposing, who did it? Seems like if she did not do it, then to get her out of jail seems like you would have to find the real murderer?This is an interesting story in many aspects!
