Levi Manning is their leader. The Knights are his ticket away from the family farm he has run into the ground. Levi convinces the Knights to move - immediately and forcefully. Harvester Stanley, Lincoln's son, is privy to the Knights' plans. Though just fourteen, he uses wits and intelligence to stop the Knights in their tracks. If only it could stay that way. The Knights strike again, and within weeks innocent people are dead. Families, black and white, are left to pick up the pieces. Over the next sixty years no family is impacted more than Levi Manning's. His son, Earl, longs for the idyllic Grebey Island of his childhood, while grandson Chan never wants to see the place again. Both are good men, successful in their own rights, but forced time and again to face the consequences of a bloody past. Find out what Amazon reviewers already know: Paul E.
