Stephen Carter recovers the life of his grandmother Eunice Hunton Carter, a Black woman prosecutor in 1930s New York and the only non-white-male lawyer on Thomas Dewey's team hunting the underworld. The strategy she devised helped convict Lucky Luciano, even as prejudice, family tragedy, and her Communist brother's McCarthy-era imprisonment shadowed her rise.
