Synopsis
Barrett Raines is offered an opportunity to run for Lafayette County sheriff against Lou Sessions. Backing Raines is Linton Loyd, a powerful businessman and Sessions' enemy. Barrett doesn't understand why a rich white man would want to back him, an African-American, but it's an appealing opportunity...until Loyd's son becomes a suspect in the death of a Hispanic migrant female who was found shackled to the walls of a hut in a swamp called Strawman's Hammock. The likelihood of Raines being the first black man to run for office in his county is diminished when he finds himself caught between the sheriff and the Loyd family.
