The Body In The Shaft
A Short Story By Gerald Wayne Primm
ASIN: B00NRD8P1S
Publisher: Amazon.com Services LLC
Pages: 17

This is a short story by Gerald Wayne Primm, author of Memories of Alix: Tales Of A Culture Long Gone. It is a short story of a murder committed because of racial hatred. In this story, Primm resurrects an old, but true story of the murder of a black lady, which occurred in the 1920's, in the small coal mining town town of Alix, Arkansas, the author's home town. Several people were suspected of the murder, but none ever charged. Primm blends fiction with the true fact of the murder, and in this gripping story the murderer, who escaped justice until he was an elderly man, is finally tricked into confessing to the murder and the slow turning wheels of justice finally render the verdict that was slow in coming, but as certain as life itself. One person who read the text before it was submitted for publishing said, "a great story; once I began reading I couldn't put it down."
