Mary B. Addison killed a baby. Allegedly. She didn’t say much in that first interview
with detectives, and the media filled in the only blanks
that mattered: a white baby had died while under the care
of a churchgoing black woman and her nine-year-old
daughter. The public convicted Mary and the jury made it
official. But did she do it? She wouldn’t say. Mary survived six years in baby jail before being dumped
in a group home. The house isn’t really “home”—no place
where you fear for your life can be considered a home.
Home is Ted, who she meets on assignment at a nursing
home. There wasn’t a point to setting the record straight
before, but now she’s got Ted—and their unborn child—to
think about. When the state threatens to take her baby,
Mary must find the voice to fight her past. And her fate
lies in the hands of the one person she distrusts the
most: her Momma. No one knows the real Momma. But does
anyone know the real Mary? In this gritty and haunting debut, Tiffany D. Jackson
explores the gray areas in our understanding of justice,
family, and truth, acknowledging the light and darkness
alive in all of us.
