On a placid Blue Ridge mountain lake on Labor Day Weekend in 1935, three locals sightseeing in an overloaded boat drown, and the cotton mill scion who owns the lake is indicted for their murders. Decades later Ben Crocker - witness to and reluctant participant in the aftermath of this long-forgotten tragedy - is drawn once more into the morally ambiguous world of mill fortunes and foothills justice.
