Savage Sundown

by Elizabeth Forbush

Pretty Rachel Lee Stevens was the pride of the community. She was fresh, beautiful, and unflawed -- until the eve of her wedding, when she fell victim to one of the most brutal and heinous crimes ever committed... In a remote area of northeast Georgia, there occurred a violent clash between whites and blacks that resulted in the banishment of the blacks from their homes. To this day, they have never returned. In the aftermath, the white citizens of Forsyth County attempted to blot this bloody chapter from their history. Records and newspapers were destroyed in a frantic effort to obliterate that fateful Judgment Day... and its shattering climax.
