Once Judge Atlee was a powerful figure in Clanton Mississippi. Now he is a shadow of himself, a sick lonely old man who has withdrawn to his sprawling acestral home. Knowing the end is near, Judge Atlee has issued a summons for his two sons to return to Clanton to discuss his estate. Ray is the eldest, a Virginia law professore, newly single and still enduring the aftershocks of a suprise divorce. Forrest is Ray's younger brother whom is the family black sheep.

But the family meeting does not take place. The judge dies too soon and in doing so leaves behind a shocking secret known only to Ray ... and perhaps someone else.

Fabulous book!!
