No Villains, No Heroes dramatizes a shocking episode in Virginia history.
In March 1912 Floyd Allen was convicted of assault in Carroll County, in Virginia's Blue Ridge. When he announced, "Gentlemen, I ain't a-goin," a gun battle erupted in the crowded courtroom between law officers and the Allen clan. Five people were killed; seven wounded. Floyd and his young son Claude were executed a year later. Other Allens served long prison sentences.
Who were the villains? Who were the heroes? In this moving historical novel, the narrator, a detective called in to hunt down the fugitives, grapples with these perplexing questions and the true meaning of law and justice.
Thomas Moore is the author of The Hunt for Confederate Gold.
