Powerful!Passionate!Best in depth Novel concerning racism!!

In this Novel "Shadow Of My Brother",a young boy victimized in a hate crime is brutally murdered while 5 people watched ignoring his pleas in this small,sleepy southern town of Elisabethville.The author"Davis Grubb" goes back to 3 generations of the Wilson family to build a narrative of terror not only with this murder but of the special yet familiar evil that spawned a racist murderer.This would make a strong theme for a movie!!
