Huck Finn's Revenge
A Novel of Justice and Redemption on the Mississippi
Thirty years after the journey that changed both their lives, Sheriff Huckleberry Finn receives the news he never expected.
A letter arrives with devastating news: his old friend, Jim Watson, has been found hanging from an oak tree outside Natchez.
The authorities call it suicide. Huck knows it was murder.
Leaving behind the quiet life he spent decades building, Huck returns to the Mississippi determined to uncover the truth. But in Natchez, justice belongs to the powerful. Wealthy landowners control the sheriff, the coroner, and the courts. Witnesses are silenced, and the law serves those with money instead of those in need.The deeper Huck digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Every question makes him another enemy. Every answer brings him closer to the men who murdered Jim, and the powerful forces willing to kill again to keep their secrets buried.
Jim once risked everything to help Huck become the man he was meant to be. Now, thirty years later, Huck may have to risk everything to honor the friend who never stopped believing in him.
Set during the turbulent years of Reconstruction, Huck Finn's Revenge continues the story of Huckleberry Finn and Jim Watson after the events of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Blending historical fiction, mystery, and suspense, it is a powerful tale of friendship, corruption, courage, and the enduring fight for justice.
Because sometimes the only thing more dangerous than murder... is the truth.
