Author Ace Atkins’ latest novel reminiscent of Jessica Chambers case

Author Ace Atkins is a New York Times best-selling author.

But before Ace became a successful novelist, he was a Pulitzer Prize-nominated crime reporter.

It’s what makes his novels feel so real.

And his latest hits close to home, for any of us following the news of a horrific Mid-South murder.

Critics say “The Innocents” is eerily similar to the Jessica Chambers case in Mississippi.
