Tuskegee: A Novel of Love and Loss During the Tuskegee Syphilis Study (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798994289211)

Tuskegee is a powerful work of historical fiction inspired by one of the darkest ethical failures in American history and the love that endured within it.

In the quiet fields of Macon County, Alabama, James and Sarah Turner build a life rooted in faith, devotion, and hard work. When government doctors arrive at their church offering free medical treatment, James steps forward in hope, believing the promise of care meant for men like him. What he does not know is that his trust and his body will be used as part of a decades-long deception now known as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.

As the years pass and the truth remains hidden, the cost of that betrayal ripples through James's marriage, his family, and his sense of dignity. Yet through illness, silence, and loss, one thing refuses to break: the bond between James and Sarah. Their love becomes an act of resistance against a system designed to discard them.

TUSKEGEE is not a courtroom drama or a clinical retelling. It is an intimate, human story about trust given, love tested, and dignity reclaimed long after justice comes too late.

A novel of love and loss, memory and reckoning, Tuskegee asks what it means to endure and what it costs to believe.
