A young white woman has been bludgeoned to death in a rural church on Cicada Road, just outside the small town of Walterboro, South Carolina--a state that has been roiling with racial tenson since the shooting of an unarmed Black man by a white police officer. Sam Jenkins, who is Black, was found covered in blood and kneeling over her. Zach Stander, a down-and-out lawyer, is convinced to take Sam's case by his detective girlfriend, Addie, while the local solicitor prosecuting the case wields the power of an influential family. And then there's the mysterious cold-case of teen girls murdered on a nearby beach--is there a connection, and will Addie and Zach put the pieces together in time?
