Story of a successful and well respected family. We learn all about Eunice Carter’s grandparents and famous parents, finally getting around to Eunice in chapter 5. Eunice knew she wanted to be a lawyer at a young age “to put the bad people in jail.” She received her Bachelors and Masters degree in 4 years. Ran in the same social circles as Langston Hughes, WEB Dubois, and Zora Neale Hurston. We learn all about the accomplishments of the people around Eunice including her mother and infamous brother but very little time is spent on the case in the books title.
