A Calamity of Souls David Baldacci ebook
Notes From Your Bookseller David Baldacci is a mystery mastermind, and here he takes it closer to home than ever before. A Calamity of Souls is based on his own childhood during the desegregation of the South. Blending the personal connection with his usual dose of dynamic characters and propulsive plot makes for a read that will win over new fans and continue to endear him to his usual readership. Set in the tumultuous year of 1968 in southern Virginia, a racially charged murder case sets a duo of white and Black lawyers against a deeply unfair system as they work to defend their wrongfully accused Black defendants in this courtroom drama from #1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci.
Jack Lee is a white lawyer from Freeman County, Virginia, who has never done anything to push back against racism—until he decides to represent Jerome Washington, a Black man charged with brutally killing an elderly wealthy white couple. Doubting his decision, Lee fears that his legal skills may not be enough to prevail in a case where the odds are already stacked against both him and his client. He quickly finds himself out of his depth when he realizes that what's at stake is far greater than the outcome of a murder trial.
