Author & historian Karen Cox shares the true story of a 1932 murder in Mississippi.

In 1932, Natchez, MS, reckoned with an unexpected influx of journalists & tourists as the lurid story of a local murder was splashed across headlines. Two eccentrics enlisted an African American man named to rob their reclusive neighbor. Strange, fascinating, & sobering, Goat Castle shows how a true crime of fallen southern grandeur & murder obscured an all too familiar story of racial injustice.
