In 1955, at the height of alarm over the Emmett Till murder in Mississippi and after the Supreme Court ruling against school segregation, Associated Press reporter Rachel Feigen travels from Baltimore to Tennessee to report on a missing person case. Guy Saillots last contact with his family was a postcard from the Tennessee Bend Motel, a seedy establishment situated on beautiful Cherokee Lake. But they have no record he was ever a guest.As the investigation deepens, Feigen has problems of her own when three local extremists decide to teach a lesson to the uppity jewgirl from the North whos poking around in things that are none of her concern. But events in the Tennessee Bend Motels room number 10 dont turn out exactly as theyd planned.This frank and honest story does justice to its superb Southern setting, capturing both the engaging qualities of the Southern people, and the terrible acts of discrimination and racism carried out by a few.
