Book
In the pines : a lynching, a lie, a reckoning / Grace Elizabeth Hale.
"Grace Hale was home from college when she first heard the family legend. In 1947, while her beloved grandfather had been serving as a sheriff in the Piney Woods of south-central Mississippi, he prevented a lynch mob from killing a Black man who was in his jail on suspicion of raping a white woman -- only for the suspect to die by his own hand. It was a tale straight out of To Kill a Mockingbird, with her grandfather as the tragic hero. This story, however, hid a dark truth"-- Provided by publisher.
