Judge Reuben V. Atlee laid down the law in Ford County for forty years, but
age and illness has left the revered jurist a recluse in Maple Run, his
family home. With the end in sight, The Judge issues a summons for both of
his sons to return home to discuss the details of his estate. His eldest son,
Ray, a professor of law at the University of Virginia, and his youngest son,
Forrest, the black sheep in the family, have not ventured home to Clanton in
years. Reluctantly heading south, to the place where he grew up, Ray reports
to the judge's study, per the date and time indicated on his father's
handsome stationery. But the family meeting never takes place, leaving Ray
burdened with a dangerous secret. Should he share it? But someone is well
aware he knows...and just waiting for Ray's next move.
