Shadow of power, by Steve Martini

Did you realize that in the Constitution, former slaves are referred to as 3/5 of a human being? The language itself has not been amended. A new book reveals that to the general public, and the author is on a book tour, generating protests that are increasingly violent. He refers to a letter written by Jefferson that is so inflammatory, he predicts social revolution will occur. After he's murdered, attorney Paul Madriani defends the accused killer.
