Bottom Rail

By Victoria Fleshman

A writer becomes a detective when she begins to investigate the simple disappearance of a black man, which turns out to be a complex mystery full of twists and turns. Bottom Rail is part allegory and part reportage in the vein of Truman Capote's In Cold Blood and Norman Mailer's The Executioner's Song. In this highly suspenseful and inventive novel, Aggie Mc Donald sets out to pen down a new book, only to find herself uncovering the evil that lurks in the hearts of every man and woman that drove them to murder. Written in a heart-wrenching style fusing narratives and monologues to create a riveting story, this ambitious and sprawling little book leaps from the present to the past and then back again to show us that history and memory go hand in hand into revealing the truth.
