"Ben Corbett, a lawyer in early-twentieth-century Washing DC, risks his life fighting racism and oppression. So when rumours of the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan in his hometown of Eudora, Mississippi emerge; he is sent to investigate. There he meets Abraham Cross and learns that lynchings have become commonplace - but the truth of who is really behind it could break his heart."--Publisher description.

Really interesting to read

OK, it's not really an Alex Cross' novel. But it's a very interesting story about the Southern States post-abolition of slavery. It tells a deep story of white supremacism, Ku Klux Klan, etc. and how "Justice" is distorted to benefit some. And BTW, don't forget to check how MuriKKKa behaves in 2025... 100+ years after this story.
