What is Lay That Trumpet in Our Hands about?

"In the orange-blossom scented spring of 1951, Flordia Klansmen abducted and killed nineteen-year-old black citrus picker Marvin Cully, igniting a drama that would forever change Reesa McMahon, the world she knew, and the people she loved." There was her indomitable grandmother "Doto," who drove hell-bent down from Chicago in her new blue DeSoto...Warren, her slow-to-anger Yankee father, who never quite fit into the closed society of Good Ol' Boy growers...Miss Maybelle Mason, the elderly postmistress, who knew a rattlesnake when she saw one - and the bite of heartbreak...and Luther and Armetta and the black community of Mayflower, Florida, who understood that nothing must stop this small town's confrontation with racial prejudice, injustice, and truth.
