内容简介

When four white teenagers desecrate an old slave burying ground， racial tensions explode and Danny Chaisson finds himself on the wrong side of a bitter struggle over land， power， and memory in a small Louisiana town. Hired by a wealthy real estate developer to protect his interest in a valuable piece of property， Danny discovers that even the past can t stay buried for long in the rich soil of the bayou country. As the violence spreads and more bodies surface， only Danny s determination to dig up this region s bloody past can stop a cycle of fear and hatred that seems as old as the land itself. With compelling characters and dead-on dialogue， The Burying Field is an enthralling crime novel.
