The Last Juror
reviewed on + 8 more book reviews


In 1970, Willie Traynor came to Clanton, Mississippi, in a Triumph Spitfire and a fog of vague ambitions. Within a year, the twenty-three year old found himself the owner of Ford County's only newspaper, famous for its well crafted obituaries. While the rest of America was in the grips of turmoil. Clanton lived on the edge of another age- until the brutal murder of a young mother rocked the town and thrust Willie into the center of a storm.
