Synopsis
A drama
In a Louisiana army camp in 1944 Capt. Taylor, the white C.O., has a problem.
He commands a Black company whose sergeant has been murdered.
He is worried the murderer may be a white officer or the local Klan.
A Black captain, Richard Davenport, is assigned to investigate.
Taylor tries to discourage him because he feels the assignment of a Black investigator means the case is to be swept under the rug.
Capt. Davenport perseveres and, as he probes deeper, he finds the Black soldiers are as corrupted with hatred as the whites.
Each one had a motive for the killing.
Davenport solves the case and the truth is even more shocking than the murder itself
