Mississippi Trial, 1955

Chris Crowe's Mississippi Trial, 1955 is fiction, but is based on the actual events surrounding the kidnapping and murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till in 1955 Mississippi. The story is told through the eyes of a 16-year-old white boy, Hiram Hilburn, who had moved away from the area but is back visiting his grandfather. Hiram knows both Emmett and the people involved in the murder. The story follows from events leading up to the murder through the trial. I haven't read this one yet, but it looks pretty good based on the reviews I've read. Check it out!
