This is a story I didn't know, it reminded me of Zola "J'accuse" as a miscarriage of justice as it's case that involves an innocent man accuse because of prejudice and a writer that turned the tables.
The book is gripping, a vivid description of racist prejudices and of an era.
It's a well written and well researched book that kept me turning pages as the author is a good storyteller.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
