La 4e de couv. indique : "October 1946, Clanton, Mississippi. Pete Banning was Clanton, Mississippi's favorite son -- a decorated World War II hero, the patriarch of a prominent family, a farmer, father, neighbor, and a faithful member of the Methodis church. Then one cool October morning he rose early, drove into town, and committed a shocking crime. Pete's only statement about it -- to the sheriff, to his lawyers, to the judge, to the jury and to his family -- was : "I have nothing to say." He was not afraid of death and was willing to take his motive to the grave."
