From the Publisher
"This is the darkest story I've ever heard." So begins Thomas H. Cook's haunting tale of love and its aftermath, of the price a whole town paid for a single moment of passionate betrayal. The town was Choctaw, Alabama. The place was Breakheart Hill. The girl was Kelli Troy. The violence that rocked Breakheart Hill on that summer afternoon did not end on its wooded slope. At least not for Ben Wade, now the town's doctor, one of its most revered citizens, and the only man who knows what really happened that August afternoon in 1962.... Copyright 1995 by Thomas H. Cook.
