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.
