Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Depression, of Dust Bowl and Grapes of Wrath infamy, was not solely a middle-America tragedy. Families living in the South suffered similar economic and social misfortunes. This the heart-rending tale of an honest, hard-working man supporting a wife and three young children who worked as a sharecropper on the 800-acre tobacco farm of one of the most despised men in Lenoir County, North Carolina, and how the sharecropper’s sixteen year-year-old daughter lived with a terrible secret. Woven into this tragic tale is a plot by persons unknown to murder the landowner and steal his fortune. It’s a real page-turner.
