Southland

Southland a book written by Nina Revoyr is a mystery book that spans many generations. Jackie Ishida a law student goes to her aunts house after her grandfather passes away and discovers her grandfather for the first time. She finds out why he kept $38,000 dollars in the closet and an old will that leaves that money to Curtis. She soon discovers that Curtis and two other boys were murdered in her grandfathers store, which explains why her grandfather sold the store and moved their family. This book takes you on a journey through 1965 during the riots in LA and then in 1994 where Jackie is discovering her heritage, herself, and her family. I recommend this book to anyone who loves history and mystery.
