This book took me back to a terrible time in the country's history that we are still feeling the repercussions of today. It helped me to feel the terror Black people felt due to the lynchings and other crimes inflicted on them by the KKK, mostly in the former slave holding states, The reason for the cruel treatment of Black people, and the terrorist night raids was actually shown to be the white population's fear of losing privileged status in society and their fear of not being able to compete fairly for jobs and resources against Black people who were used to working harder and longer hours for little or no pay. In fact, many Black citizens were still working and living under inhumane conditions on plantations that operated just as they had when slavery was legal. Unfortunately, the government at all levels was in cahoots with the racists, citizens in all walks of life were in the KKK, and thus, the Black population had little to no source of help during those decades of Jim Crow and racial terrorism.

Excellent story of the confrontations of black versus white people in the South after the Civil war. The extreme prejudice of the white people against
black people is evident in lynchings and killings by the outlawed KKK reveals a historic time in America's history.
When an attorney is sent by the President to investigate the reports of these actions, he ends up being hung by himself and manages to live.
He finds friends that are sympathetic to end of the killings and manage to arrest and bring to trial three suspects knowing that they would be set free to continue their destructive ways.
An epic battle between the blacks and the KKK results in a major change in the behaviors of all involved and leads to a change in the mental attitude of the times.
An excellent writing by this author that is written fairly and accurately.

This book was a hard read, but only because the writing was so compelling and the topic so wrenching that it made me uncomfortable. This is a fictional account of the reality human people actually experienced in our country. It is a story not so far removed from what is currently happening in our country and it gives me hope that change is not only possible but is happening all around us. The characters in this story are, like all of Patterson's books, emotionally engaging and complex. Whether you like them or not, you will know them. That's an incredible feat! The story was as good the first time reading it was it was the second time, as I'm sure it will be the next time I read it.

Terrible book, I typically read from this series a book every 2 days. This one is dragging because it’s not even in line with the life of Alex Cross.

With the exception of a few minor plot oddities, I really enjoyed this book and appreciated its message. I didn't know if I'd like this book at first - considering it wasn't a true "Alex Cross" novel - but what I found was a somber and insightful account of race relations in the South at the turn of the 20th century and, to some extension, as we know them today. Every American should read this novel - especially now - due to the heightened and racially divisive climate we live in under the current White House Administration.

A wonderfully told story of our flawed America. With a tough and realistic view of our world. It saddens me to think we are still in this battle. It also saddens me to know that the fight continues.

A very strong turn from the previous Cross books, this one is extremely powerful and gut wrenching. It is all too painfully real, especially in light of some of the things still happening today in our divided nation.

This book had me sitting on the edge of my chair but it was not the first time that James Patterson has done that for me. Another great book from a much loved author and series of Alex Cross books.
