In 1948, rural Georgia, Coweta County is watched over by its legendary, indomitable Sheriff Lamar Potts. No felony had every gone unsolved while Sheriff Potts was in charge. In the next county, though, there is a vast estate know as The Kingdom. It's ruled by one man, John Wallace, whose power is absolute and beyond the law. But when Wallace chases one of his underlings to deliver ruthless punishment, he makes a critical mistake. He crosses over into Coweta County.
Writer Barnes tells the story of a corrupt, crime-ridden city, examining events that unfolded during 1916-1955. Phenix City had been a 19th-century refuge from law enforcement for 120 years until three men in succession challenged the status quo. To reconstruct the story the author draws on notes and private papers of the principals and investigators; depositions, trial transcripts, and court records; daily newspaper coverage; and transcripts of wire-tapped recordings of the city's gamblers and politicians. No index or bibliography. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
