Description

The thrilling saga of the Powell family continues in A Strange and Bitter Fruit: The Peacemaker, a follow-up to the bestselling historical novel A Strange and Bitter Fruit. The book opens in 1913, seven years after the tragic conclusion of A Strange and Bitter Fruit. At the heart of The Peacemaker are four males, each consumed by anger and hate given the events portrayed in the previous novel. Robert Powell, son of the wronged Thomas "Tee" Powell, doggedly pursuing the elusive Wendell Pike, the last surviving Klansman of the group responsible for lynching Tee's parents and sisters. Clellon Folmar Junior, obsessed with revenge since youth after viewing his father's body, one that was tortured and mutilated by Tee, is a federal agent. Charles Marston, US Army officer and another man dedicated to the destruction of the Powells. As a youth Charles had glimpsed the shattered body of his father Marshall, another victim of Tee Powell. Innocent William Reems, mixed race son of Billy Reems, rounds out the angry quartet. Although a person of color, William develops a deep hatred of all black people, an internal conflict with tragic consequences. The Peacemaker confronts the issues of the first novel - violence, revenge, racial injustice - as reflected in the lives of these four men and in the context of the challenges present in the early 20th Century. Who among these men is able to put past events behind them to confront a shared evil, a shared threat? Who will become The Peacemaker?
