In the story set in Gainesville, Dr. Xavier Randal stands as a beacon of hope, confronting racial injustice and healing a torn community in the wake of a young man's lynching. Alongside Dr. Aaron Goldstein, they navigate a path of truth, facing their own inner struggles. As the first Black councilman, Randal's life intertwines love, politics, and ambition while working with the F.B.I. to find the murderers of this young Black man. Amidst joy and sorrow, the quest for justice unfolds, revealing hard truths and secrets in a community that yearns for change. The strength and resilience of the Black population are tested like never before. "A RECKONING IN GAINESVILLE" is compelling and leaves you wanting more. From the opening paragraph of an alligator coming out of a swamp in Gainesville, Florida...to a young Black man, his mutilated body found hanging from an oak tree.... you make the connection between the reptile and the racist South of 1941... Like the alligator, rednecks don't chase their prey. They stalk them. "This book by Wanda Weaver opens your eyes. It is an excellent read." Brenda J Waters Emmy Award Winning Journalist CBS NEWS-RETIRED "This story must be told." Austin Film Festival Coverage Group "...really engaging and wanted to know what was going to happen next. I love the subtle clues you give along the way. Very well written with multiple things happening around Kevin's murder." Ernest Gilchrist, author of "Fusion of Cultures, The Spirit of Argyll America Revealed" "Was enthralled from the first sentence. Love mysteries and crime procedurals. You do them justice. The story's pacing is superb! I felt every emotion from pride to despair, rage to hope. So grateful that you're documenting your great uncle's journey." Paris Brooks
