The night fifteen-year-old Tyrell Williams witnessed the brutal rape and murder of Crystal Banks by the sons of two of Montgomery, Alabama's social elite, he knew his life would forever be changed. With a murder warrant issued for him after the real perpetrators go to the police, Tyrell flees to Los Angeles just ahead of the Watts Riots. What he sees there, combined with what had happened in Montgomery, Tyrell plans for his future. Thirty-five years later, as a semi-retired defense attorney, he takes a new job in the Montgomery District Attorney's Office. With a new name, the poor boy from Montgomery returns to seek justice for the girl he saw killed, and the boy once known as Tyrell Williams. The two murderers have become the Mayor and Chief of Police of Montgomery. Both men now have a stranglehold on the city and rule through corruption and intimidation. Their cornerstone of deceit remained hidden within a legitimate company they set up called the Crystal Corporation. It wasn't until an estranged friend began to investigate them for the local newspaper, did the real horrors begin to surface. One Hopeful Road is one man's journey from the racially divided South of the sixties, to California, and back home nearly four decades later to make things right.
