The Crossing

Carson Reno Mystery Series, Book 5

By: Gerald Darnell

Narrated by: James H Kiser

The racial problems of 1962 have found their way to the small West Tennessee town of Humboldt. A white woman has been brutally murdered, and one of Carson's childhood friends has been accused of the crime. Carson's friend is a colored man who once worked for his grandfather, but the accusations and problems extend beyond the crime and to the heart of this small community. Carson finds a divided town; a town divided along the lines of race and the interference of outside groups, which makes this division even wider. Challenged with defending his friend, Carson must find a solution before the two sides collide, which would definitely have devastating results. Join Carson, as he faces one of his toughest challenges in the Crossing.

prejudices kill

I liked that the killer got a smidgen of the same treatment he dealt out. What a twisted villain. It was very upsetting to see all the inequality and prejudices. Liz is one pushy broad that I'm really starting to dislike. She treats Carson like a child ordering him around, and the goof does her bidding for the reward!!!!! I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.
