Midnight in Memphis
Dann Thomas
1955, Memphis. Homicide detective Burdett Vance is trying to outrun his past, but working in the homicide division always ends up bringing in new waves of horror. Now an unknown killer is reaping retribution for decades of lynching by targeting the daughters of rich white families in Memphis. When Vance is assigned to the case, he''s also put in charge of a new trainee, Officer Eustace Johnson. Eustace Johnson has been recently ''promoted'' and as one of the few Black men on the force this is the latest publicity stunt of the police department. Forced to work together, Vance and Johnson must catch the rampaging killer in a city roiling with racial injustice and a fight to control the crumbling local politics. Then Emmeline Bryce, Vance''s old flame, becomes the killer''s next target. With Emme''s life on the line, Vance and Johnson must confront their deepest fears and darkest desires before the city ignites into chaos and the blissful vision of a better future disappears forever. Readers of James Lee Burke will delight in this bitingly smart thriller full of intrigue and age-old animosities.
