"The first case of New York Times bestseller Steve Berry's iconic hero, Cotton Malone"--Dust jacket. |
History notes that the feud between J. Edgar Hoover and Martin Luther King, Jr., marked by years of illegal surveillance and the accumulation of secret files, ended on April 4, 1968 with King's assassination. Fifty years later, former Justice Department agent, Cotton Malone, must reckon with the truth of what really happened that fateful day in Memphis. It seems eighteen years ago Malone, as a young Navy lawyer was helping Stephanie Nelle, a high-level Justice Department lawyer, with an investigation. But the Justice Department and the FBI were at war over a rare coin and a cadre of secret files containing explosive revelations about the King assassination. Malone's decision to see it through to the end changed his own life... and the course of history. |
