Hot Pursuit: Murder in Mississippi

40 pp. | Kar-Ben | March, 2010 | Library ISBN 978-0-7613-3955-7 $17.95 | Paper ISBN 978-0-7613-3956-4 $7.95
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Craig Orback. This slim volume memorializes the three civil rights workers who were murdered in the South in 1964. The plot imagines the emotions experienced by the young men on their last day alive while being pursued by the local police; an epilogue reveals the real-life outcome. Content doesn't always pair well with the colorful, action-flick-type illustrations.
