In 1950s Mississippi, a forbidden love flickers between a white woman and a Black man - but when truth threatens power, silence becomes deadly.
Lanterns in Mississippi is a sweeping historical novel that begins in the present day, when 18-year-old Clara Whitmore uncovers a hidden letter written by her late grandmother Evelyn.
As Clara unravels the truth of the past, she is pulled into a reckoning that stretches across generations.
From the cotton fields of Marion County to the courthouse steps of Jackson, this is a story of justice buried, love outlawed, and remembrance that refuses to die.
A novel of deep tenderness and searing power, Lanterns in Mississippi is not just a love story - it lights the flame of redemption.
