All politics is local. And so are racism and murder. In the 1980s in a small South Carolina town, a crusading newspaper editor attempts to unravel the mystery behind a string of home break-ins that appear to be harmless -- except to the white political establishment. Leaders become divided over supporting their own incumbent candidate, the state's first African-American sheriff. They fear his loss to a white GOP challenger in November would break apart the delicate black-white voting bloc the Democrats have held together for 30 years. When the next break-in ends in murder, every institution -- and racial relationship -- in the community unravels. And the one person who provides the best understanding of the incompetence of law enforcement and the backroom deals being made by white and black Democrats is the editor of the King County Recorder.
