The Journey of Shine Rivers

In the early morning hours of June 4th, 1962, a young, black man is murdered in Charleston, SC. Later that day, the Civil Rights marches in the city begin. Over the next 14 days, while city leaders and the Ku Klux Klan develop and implement their plans to battle this threat to their city and their way of life, Detective Lt. Frank Cassidy works to solve several seemingly unrelated murders, and Shine Rivers, a self-taught minister of a small black church on a barrier island near Charleston, emerges to become the leader of the Civil Rights movement in Charleston. Finally, these separate paths collide. This powerful story explodes in an upheaval that exposes high level murder, drug dealing, and corruption
