One things for sure, I would not have liked to have lived in the 1950s America. How we as white people treated the blacks and anyone beneath us was disgusting. And it saddens me that we still do it now. We have no shame.
Ruby is the hired help. She’s black and just trying to make enough money to go to college. She cleans for the white folk up in Sunnylakes. Big houses, owned by people with more money than sense, with lots of cupboards to hide their dirty secrets in.
Ruby turns up to do her normal shift and finds one of the children hiding in the front garden. The other is screaming in the house. Together they go back in and discover what looks like a horrific murder scene but there’s not a body to be seen. Where has all the blood come from? And where is the body that this blood has come from? Ruby finds herself being the main suspect and she needs to find out the truth to set herself free.
Typical case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time and being judged by the colour of your skin.
