MagicTime by Doug Marlette
Following a terrorist bombing in New York City, Carter Ransom returns to his home town in Mississippi to recover from an emotional breakdown. There he learns that a twenty-five year old murder case has been reopened involving a church bombing that killed Carter's first love. Carter's father, recently retired, was the judge in the case and now there is evidence that the trial may have been flawed.
Moving between the 1990's and the Civil Rights movement of the 1960's in the south, Magic Time is a love story, courtroom drama and eloquent description of the civil rights revolution.
