Incognegro: A Graphic Mystery #1

Zane Pinchback is an African-American journalist whose light skin tone enables him to pass for 'white' and publish exposes on the Ku Klux Klan. Learning his brother has been arrested for murder, Zane returns to the south he'd left behind but everything about the murder proves complicated as the murder victim isn't who everything thinks it is and the Klan have almost figured out who Zane is.
