Set in Richmond and Mobile during the 1880s, Feet of Clay is a family saga, a historical romance, a murder mystery, a courtroom drama, and a study of human behavior. There are no perfect heroes here, only men with feet of clay. They have been wronged; they have done wrong, but they are all honorable men with all too human flaws.
