In 1922, Frank Dupre became the last man hanged at Atlanta?s notorious Fulton Tower. Just before the rope was placed around his neck, he heard Betty Andrews cry out from the crowd that had gathered to witness the execution. As the trapdoor dropped, he responded with his final words. So begins Will You Meet Me in Heaven?, the historical novel by award-winning author David Fulmer. The narrative is inspired by the true story that was a tabloid sensation for months and was later immortalized in the iconic blues ballad "Betty and Dupree." The story of this bloody crime and doomed romance is not the only tale between these covers. For two wild weeks, the lives of four other characters ? Atlanta police detective Albert Nichols, newspaper reporter Johnny Holland, and jewel thief and rounder Joe Rose and his partner in crime Pearl Spencer ? are touched by the drama. Set against the backdrop of the busiest city in the South at the beginning of a transformative decade, Will You Meet Me in Heaven? is the story of a sudden romance that sparked a haphazard murder and then a wild escape, dooming a sad love affair and exploding into banner headlines and a final scene on an Atlanta gallows.
