The year is 1906, and America is segregated. Hatred and discrimination plague the streets, the classroom, and the courts. But in Washington, D.C., Ben Corbett, a smart and courageous lawyer, makes it his mission to confront injustice at every turn. He represents those who nobody else dares defend, merely because of the color of their skin. When President Roosevelt, under whom Ben served in the Spanish-American war, asks Ben to investigate rumors of the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan in his hometown in Mississippi, he cannot refuse.
The details of Ben's harrowing story - and his experiences with a remarkable man named Abraham Cross - were passed from generation to generation, until they were finally recounted to Alex Cross by his grandmother, Nana Mama. From the first time he heard the story, Alex was unable to forget the unimaginable events Ben witnessed in Eudora and pledged to tell it to the world. Alex Cross's Trial is unlike any story Patterson has ever told, but offers the astounding action and breakneck speed of any Alex Cross novel.

New Paths
I would guess from this and some other recent titles that Patterson is trying to break out of the mold into which he has cast himself. I view this with mixed emotions. I have enjoyed every one of his Alex Cross novels, but at the same time realize his difficulty. In fact, I share it in a way, as I would hate to see each novel become more gory and more fantastic than the last, yet this seems to be the fate of many mystery novelists.This current novel has a great deal of fascinating history. It is tied into Patterson's existing characters, whom we would greatly miss otherwise. However, there is not much future in this direction either.I enjoyed this book greatly, and look forward with great anticipation to see what direction Patterson heads in now. Sure would miss Alex and crew!

ALEX CROSS'S TRIAL
This is one of James Patterson's finest books. Of course all his books are great but this is one of those you don't want to put down wondering what is going to happen next. He is my favorite authors and he has not failed me yet. Keep them coming especially more Alex Cross.
