A one-woman theatrical performance
My granddaddy was a farmer and a bootlegger, a very successful bootlegger. He was so successful he branched out and became the local loan shark when someone needed money. Two things about my granddaddy everybody knew. He was legally blind and he didn't trust banks. So granddaddy hid all of his money in coffee cans and buried them around his farm. I know because I helped him. I was his eyes and his accountant. I knew where each coffee can was buried and exactly how much was inside.
When both my grandparents were murdered and their house was burned to the ground to cover it up, it set a series of events in motion that changed my life forever. For many, the answer to who killed my grandparents is still a mystery to this day.
Told through my naïve, young eyes, Poison Gun is the story of my grandparents' murder, the investigation, the cat and mouse game I had to play with a corrupt white police officer who was interested in finding my Granddaddy's hidden money, and the conviction that followed.
