"When I was twenty I came face to face with the old man convicted of paying five thousand dollars for the murder of my father."

On August 7, 1967, prosecutor Floyd "Fuzzy" Hoard was killed by a car bomb in his own front yard in Jackson County, Georgia. Summoning the memories of the events surrounding that day, Alone among the Living is G. Richard Hoard's remembrance of the father he lost on that day, and of his subsequent struggle to come to terms with the murder.
