About this listen
A Southern Mystery of Love, Murder, and Secrets Buried in Time
In a quiet East Texas cemetery near the town of Elza, elderly Gemma Crawford lays a pot of flowers on the grave of Jesse Rose, the boy she loved from the moment she met him.
Seventy-five years earlier, twelve-year-old Gemma sat beside Jesse atop a Ferris wheel, gazing down on the town fair. Even then, she knew her heart belonged to him. But while they spun above the midway, a deadly incident was unfolding below, and an incident that would force Jesse to hide both a body and a terrible secret that would shape the rest of their lives.
Five years later, Jesse’s best friend, Cliff Tidwell, is found brutally murdered. Jesse stands accused, and the electric chair awaits.
To uncover the truth and save Jesse from execution, legendary Texas Ranger Brewster McKinney, local police chief Jefferson Hightower, and a battle-worn former buffalo soldier known as Cherokee-One-Leg must unravel a mystery spanning almost thirty years. Their investigation leads through a tangled web of clues, corrupt businessmen, Teddy Roosevelt’s Rough Riders, small-town gangsters, and a notorious backwoods bordello.
But Jesse is still hiding the one secret that could exonerate him: what really happened during the summer of ’36. A secret he swore he’d never tell.
That Night at the Palace is a gripping blend of historical fiction, murder mystery, and courtroom drama set against the rich backdrop of Depression-era Texas—a story of lost innocence, undying love, and the enduring power of secrets.
