Inspired by real events,\u003ci\u003e Lay That Trumpet In Our   Hands\u003c\/i\u003e is a wise and luminous story about a northern family, a southern town, and   the senseless murder that sparks an extraordinary act of courage.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e To this day, my   family is in disagreement as to precisely when the nightmare began. For me, it was   the morning Daddy and Luther discovered Marvin, beaten, shot, and dying, in the Klan’s   stomping grounds off Round Lake Road. My brother Ren disagrees. He points to the   small cluster of scars that begin just outside his left eye and trail horizontally   across his temple to the top of his ear. Ren claims it started when the men in white   robes took the unprecedented step of shooting at two white children. Others say it   was when Mr. Thurgood Marshall of the NAACP and Mr. Hoover’s FBI came to town. Mother   and Daddy shake their heads. In their minds, the real beginning was much earlier....\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eSusan Carol McCarthy lives in Carlsbad, California.
