The Butchers by J. D. Wright, Amazon Kindle format

Abingdon, Alabama. 1956. A young black maid is found hanged from a tree. Lynched. Tied to her lifeless toes is a note: "NIGGERS DON'T DATE WHITES". In an otherwise quiet and civilized community, this brutal murder cracks in the peaceful façade. The status quo — or segregation — that keeps the townsfolk at ease is beginning to rupture.

Warren Delaney, a newly-hired writer for the Abingdon Herald finds himself at the forefront of the investigation into this mysterious and heinous crime. His boss, Kyle Dawson, smells a Pulitzer Prize. His old-school gang of journalists, the Butchers, work tirelessly from an old abattoir to discover what really lies at the roots of this murder. The police are incompetent. Former Klansmen have taken root in the dubious White Citizens' Council, but nobody dares to go near them.

Delaney, Dawson and Co. must investigate if anyone is to bring this young black woman to justice and reconcile the two races separated by skin colour in this deep Southern town. But some feuds run deep. Some scars can't be healed. And the Butchers are about to learn that what divides the town of Abingdon isn't as simple as black and white …

Liz Lucas, a 52 year old widow, is beginning to think she's been given a second chance at life by owning a successful spa located in a beautiful forest area on the coast north of San Francisco.

What could possibly go wrong? Well, for starters, discovering that a guest staying in cottage #6 at the spa has been murdered.

In order to save the spa's reputation, Liz, along with her two dogs, Brandy Boy and Winston, sets out to find the killer. The cast of characters includes a handyman, spa employees, the bumbling police chief, the owner of Gertie's Diner, the dead woman's husband (the mayor), his girlfriend, and a Tiffany glass collector. One of them probably committed the crime, but it's up to Liz to quickly find the culprit.
