Should we be allowed to? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThough deeply ashamed of her slaveholding heritage, Temple Preston's sense of duty and bittersweet memories tie her to Folly Park, her family's crumbling ancestral plantation in Virginia. Now a cash-strapped tourist attraction, Folly Park was once the home of Confederate General Thomas Temple Smith, a southern war hero who died under mysterious circumstances. Temple is pursuing a plan to secure the house museum's future when her summer research assistant, a Black PhD student, uncovers a remarkable secret: the general's wife gave birth to a biracial baby while he was away fighting in the Civil War. This discovery turns Temple's quiet, insulated life upside down, and--along with further revelations about the past that come to light in the ensuing weeks--fuels the growing tension in her hometown as a Black activist and Temple's own race-baiting brother square off in a local campaign for mayor. Faced with threats and betrayal, Temple discovers who she really is--and how much she's willing to lose to tell the truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15234251\"\u003eHeidi Hackford\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e She Writes Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781647422714\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 164742271X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC014000\"\u003eHistorical | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC049040\"\u003eAfrican American \u0026amp; Black | Historical\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC074000\"\u003eSouthern\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"She Writes Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44494562427117,"sku":"9781647422714","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_c5541e52-1a45-40a2-851d-11034eddaaed.jpg?v=1700932267","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/folly-park-9781647422714","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
