Cotton and O'Grady

By Edward N. Conner

Cotton and O'Grady is a gripping tale that still generates controversy and debate more than a century after it happened. The year is 1900. Two fugitives from justice have embarked upon a rampage of robbery and murder in the small Southside Virginia town of Emporia. The pastoral innocence of this rural community is forever lost as Walter Cotton and Dave O'Grady commit crime after crime, relentlessly driving local citizens toward a rendezvous with mob violence. In the span of one month, five lives are lost and others are changed forever. Honor and infamy, courage and fear, desperation and hope all play a part in the drama as it moves to its inevitable conclusion. Raw emotions and cold logic create an outcome that is both shocking and frightening. Cotton and O'Grady is a story of what can happen when mass hysteria, fear and hatred fuel a fire that cannot be extinguished.
