Synopsis

The festering racial tensions in a Tennessee backwater town called Forrest come to the boil after a black grandmother is raped and shot by a gang of white teenagers. Only one man has the capacity to keep a lid on the mounting violence and that?s the town?s senior black cop, Walter Robinson. Only trouble is Walter?s own life isn?t in great shape: his constant infidelities are wrecking his marriage, and his nephew Cebo is the street druglord who?s leading the charge to take revenge on the whites. This is a two-fisted portrayal of the New South as it really is ? riven by poverty, drugs and racism, but still struggling towards a better future. In Shadow of Light, James E. Cherry reports back from America?s internal frontline.
