Description
The setting is a dusty Southern town during the Depression. A white woman accuses a black man of rape. Though he is obviously innocent, the outcome of his trial is such a foregone conclusion that no lawyer will step forward to defend him--except the town's most distinguished citizen. His compassionate defense costs him many friendships but earns him the respect and admiration of his two motherless children.
Description
When a failed musician-turned-journalist interviews a reclusive aging pianist, he doesn't realize he's being interviewed himself, to be the vessel for the Satanist's dying soul. Back in a youthful body, the pianist plans for a long life in the spotlight, but when the journalist's wife realizes her husband's twice the man he used to be, she prepares to make his new life a living Hell.
