Description

"Learned journals, as a rule, are unexciting and opposite of sexy, but (this) will knock your hat in the creek." -KENT BIFFLE, The Dallas Morning News

A man walks free from two cold-blooded murders, acquitted by a jury of his peers.

"Why?" a reporter asks a juryman.

"Because this is Texas."

Written by a family descendant with exclusive access to private archives, Clara Sneed's non-fiction account of the Sneed-Boyce feud-now published for the first time in book form-tells of a love affair so passionate it blinded the lovers to any mere commonsense concerns, of three families and a society consumed by the fallout, and of a marriage that ultimately survived adultery.

And those two murders.

Sneed is also the author of the recently released Before We Turn to Dust (December 2024), a fictionalized version of the feud.
