Helpful Score: 1

Absolutely one of the best books i've read. This is a very touching story of friendship, love and strength. A cajun man is killed, his people are mean and vengeful. A young white woman who has grown up with the blacks on this Louisiana plantation of cane country and loves the people who work this land has confessed to the killing. She didn't do it but she knows one of the blacks will be blamed if she doesn't say she did it. As word gets around in the hour after the killing, all the old timers who have a score to settle with this cajun family gather in front of the house, lined up, all with a rifle of the same that killed the man. Each one telling the sheriff they did the killing. Now who is he to believe and how is he going to handle this, and what is going to happen when the mean hateful father finds out his son is dead. Excellint author, excellent story consept and excellent read.
