Justice Only Slept: A Prof. Will Hampton Novel

Something strange is happening in the Georgia countryside. Two black Boy Scouts and their scoutmaster are killed in a cave explosion. Soon after, three unidentified bodies are uncovered in the woods. Oxford College professor Will Hampton's interest is piqued. Ever since the biology and chemistry instructor was asked to investigate, he hasn't been able to get the explosion out of his head. As he leaves comfortable academia for the Georgia back roads, he encounters people with several different perspectives on the so-called accident. It's the 1960s, and racial attitudes are slowly changing in the South. However, Will can't deny that extreme prejudice still exists, and the explosion could be a sign of evil to come. As Will investigates the explosion, the bodies, and other crimes, he also meets Liza. Liza captivates Will the first moment they meet in her father's diner, but her violent ex-boyfriend could be the biggest threat he faces in the course of his adventures. William A. Edwards's Justice Only Slept is an old-fashioned southern mystery that shows that even the friendliest of towns can hold life-changing secrets. Will's investigation could not only uncover troubling racial relations but also reveal a monster hiding in plain sight.
